It’s Promenade! At least, that’s how I remember it when I last heard it at age 10 so many moons ago 🤣

Good perspectives on other cities’ norms. And how road infrastructure is an influence. I can see how the multitude of roundabouts and lack of stop sign at intersections condition people to approach cautiously.
Agreed Wa’s seem to have an obliviousness (funny to see so many with student driver decals, especially funny on luxury cars) as perhaps part of this could be due to later in life vehicle purchase or recent immigrants.
By courtesy, it’s also outside of yielding in traffic. General interactions in my day-to-day, be it businesses (employees in a Bartell Drugs gave multiple suggestions on where to buy an Orca card as they ran out), coffee shops (friendly customer service, above & beyond what I’ve seen in other cities), strangers (morning jogger offered to guide me while I unloaded my car from a carrier), neighbors (welcoming me to neighborhood), etc. The funny part is I never felt the mythical “Seattle freeze.”

Native Californian here and definitely Washingtonians drive like crap, relatively speaking. Don’t know how much of it has to do with recent transplants, but definitely noticeable difference. I will say Washingtonians are a hell of a lot more courteous and for that, I’ll take the granny drivers any day of the week 😁

I think such comparisons help people to relate the experience to one another, since some haven’t experienced fires.

Been food poisoned twice at Taco Bell, yet still not afraid to hit one up every once in a while. Just don’t go to the one off Jamboree and MacArthur near John Wayne airport in Newport Beach, CA everyone!

Out of consideration for other campers and wildlife, use Trusted HouseSitters or board your dog until the behavior is corrected.
