My new chariot

I've been carrying heavy bags back from the supermarkets since I arrived. I did bring a fold-up bag with wheels but it's not very strong and I don't think it will go the distance, since I'm likely to be a pedestrian rather than a driver for the foreseeable future here.

While in Walmart last evening a gorgeous, very strong-looking shopping trolley took my eye, and at a little more than $20 I thought it worth the cost to avoid chiropractors' bills. Here is my new baby:

You can see it has groovy wheels which go up stairs easily (I tested it last night fully laden and am pleased to report it works just fine).

My own shopping trolley - I think this means I am now officially a granny!
