Problem: Bummed around , bought a 2 dollar apple , and saw some gorgeous things , including the Vancouver skyline . Went looking for the house I was staying at . Got fabulously lost , as per usual , several times . The last time I got lot was great . I arrived five large blocks away , confusing 617 with 167 .

What was I doing in Vancouver ?

A: I went home .

Problem: It was n't a place I recognized , but it looked breathtaking -- more so , perhaps , than any other pictures I ' ve seen of Norway . It was n't just the steep and wobbly landscape that was so stunning . It was also the two super - tall , super - skinny fishing houses that sat out alongside a weather - beaten pier .

What can you assume the author is nearby ?

A: The author is near a body of water .

Problem: . . I do n't know if you have a main artery in your thumb but I found one . And I got it all bandaid - ed up .

What might have happened if the writer had n't treated the wound ?

A:
They may have lost a large amount of blood .
