Wonderful, thoughtful friends willing to spend the time guiding you around a foreign city. 
Sufficiently advanced incompetence is indistinguishable from malice. There’s a certain point at which ignorance becomes malice, at which there is simply no way to become THAT ignorant except deliberately and maliciously.

We ran water from out neighbour to our 5th wheel so we could shower in it. I carried buckets of water into the house to flush and pots of water on the stove for dishes. PIA!

Insurance would have paid for a hotel but we preferred to sleep at home.

What made me smile today was after a very rough morning, almost traumatic, we finally got all the electrical work finished in the condo. And HH took back a bathroom fan as promised "if it didn't fit" which is $$ back on my CC. Thank you Home Hardware!
Trump is a fraud but he has finally admitted that there is famine in Gaza and it's okay to agree with him, unless you have different statistics than the State Department.

What made me smile? The fact that some dealer obviously lost their goods? No, the way the "Found" ad is written.

Just doesn't work.
