Heh, I never would have thought of this as weird. Guess I've been past it so much I'm used to it. Never been in it though, even though it's like the main meeting point in the city.

Shoulda left my phone at home cuz this is a DISASTER!

the only thing I liked was the cobblestones, but then once when we were there an old lady tripped and fell and I think broke her nose, they called her an ambulance confused
