All things Gucci: New York highlight #1

On the van ride from Ohare to the parking lot where we left our car, we were joined by a British family with two small children (ages roughly 2 and 3). The following conversation insued (please read with strong british accent).

Mummy, "ok, boys now we got to go get the car."
3 year old responds, "how will we find our car mummy?"
Mummy, "well, do you remember what color our car is?"
3 year old excitedly, "BLACK!"
Dad turning around from the front seat: "nooooo...our car isn't black, mummy would never get a black car" then with a smirk in his eye and in a hushed voice, "unless it was a Gucci".

Sarah's trains of thought during this conversation...
Thought #1) Wow
Thought #2) This kids have no idea what Gucci means...I wonder if they'll grow up with Gucci being a norm in life.
Thought #3) Hmmm...maybe I should market this idea to Gucci. Purses, cars...they really arn't that different from each other.

It was a very funny conversation...made more so by the accents. However the conversation was nicely resolved by the mom piping back at the dad that she "would never get a black car...even if it was a Gucci". The world is now back in order.

Oh, and when did Gucci make cars? I missed the boat on that one. Guess I'll have to come up with another brilliant idea to sell to a giant corperation.

    Hi Sarah
    Oh good, we were hoping to hear about your trip to NY.
    So Matt is gone again.
    Is this really what you signed up for? ;-} Who knew photography would take him all over the U.S. and Canada.
    We were so happy to hear you were in NY together.
    Take care sweet Sarah
    Mom and Dad K
