I asked worriedly. Be ready, willing and able to make different plans to elevate your heart rate. Walk around the market once, survey the local produce, and then double back to purchase. Once around the showcase area, and then down to the marketplace, stuffing as many stylish yet affordable Swedish lifestyle enhancing products as I can into that cheery yellow tote. This suited my mother just fine.
Shopping can be darn good exercise.
It was time for mom to say farewell, so off we went to San Francisco International Airport. Although each section of the parking lot is marked with bright color-coded letters, I always manage to park as far away from the appropriate terminal as possible. Rather than cursing the parking lot, I looked at it as yet another fitness excursion. We navigated the parking structure like gazelles, reaching the gate without a hitch. But then there was a rain delay.
