Bad Experience It wasn’t my day. Only on the way to the town did I realize that my road tax had expired. Now I had to change my original plan and instead go to renew my road tax.

Observation: October 7th‚ 2011 – oak court Mall - 2:45pm to 4:15pm I walked into the Oak Court Mall from the second level entrance to observe the young people of today.
