I can’t imagine what it felt like to see it from the foot! I’m so sorry for your experience with pushing and rudeness. I can’t stand that and it gets my adrenaline pumping. I’d have probably caused some problems there – next time take me! 😉

I don’t know what I would have done with that pushy crowd…I can’t stand being touched by strangers or openly rude people. Gorgeous pictures!
