Lisa's new wheels

Since starting work at University of Calgary - Qatar, Lisa has been renting a small car to carry her back and forth to work.  For awhile it was a Hyundai Accent and most recently the Kia Rio. This has mostly worked out well. Last week another Canadian put her vehicle for sale in preparation for returning to Ontario in December. For less than the cost of renting Lisa now owns a 2008 Honda Jazz in great condition with just 42,000km.  The Jazz is the same as the Honda Fit in Canada.

And the Jazz is much more "zippy" on the roads -- great for getting in and out of busy round-abouts. In fact, it is so zippy that Lisa got stopped for speeding yesterday -- the first time in her life. And it was on the compound! She was clocked going 33 km/h in a 20 zone. It sure didn't feel that fast......
