COSTCO

We decided to TRY to go to one of the two Costcos in London.  (The one in our Mission).
We traveled 30 min on the District Line Tube, Changed to the Victoria Line and went another 30.  After getting off at Tottingham Station, we caught a bus to, where we thought the Costco was.  We walked MULTIPLE directions, in the coldest wind we have felt yet.  Ask MULTIPLE people the directions.
Finally got on another bus and showed the bus driver the address.  Now even though they consider both countries English speaking, one of us has a really thick accent.  (They say its the Americans)  He said it was very close and explained how to get there.  Thank you, we said, not understanding half of it.  We headed out....in the wrong direction.  He honked his horn and pointed the way.
WE TRIUMPHANTLY ARRIVED AT COSTCO......Bill says, "Do you have the card?"  It was in my other purse.

                 but......we now know the way to Costco now.
