"There are four of us, and we need a ride to the HP Pavilion," he gestured to those behind him, but when he turned... he only saw Anna and Plymouth. Oh no! "I mean three. Three of us." The man quoted them $30, and Cope agreed.
"Dudes," Anna mumbled, pointing at a few cars driving down a nearby road. "Check that out! Those people are driving on the wrong side of the road!
Fruitcakes! I don't even drive yet, but even I know that that's one dumb move right there." Shaking her head and giggling at the nonsense, Anna followed Cope to the taxi stand. "I don't understand why we have to take a dumb cab," Anna mumbled, standing in line behind Cope and Plym and watching more and more dumb drivers go up and down the road. "I obtained American money, I rode on an airplane for ten frazzling hours, and then I
saw a taxi cab! Can't we just apparate over to the Harry Potter Pavilion?" she whispered, making sure the nearby muggles didn't hear her.
"I mean, if they're going to drive on the wrong side of the wrong, then I really don't think we should get in the car with any of them," Anna said, still fussing about the cab ride she was about to be forced to take. Anna rolled her eyes as Cope paid the man thirty dollars---enough for three people. Wait---THREE PEOPLE?!?! "Stopppp!" she yelled, jumping out the of the cabn she was about to get into. "We can't go with Cale!!!"
