New Mini

Ed and I went car shopping yesterday. We have been thinking about buying a Mini Cooper ever since we borrowed David and Rachael's Mini when we visited them in North Carolina. It was just so much fun to drive!

With Amanda home, we decided to buy me a new Mini and let Amanda drive the Mazda for a while. So, last night at 9:30 we finally finished sealing the deal at Mini of Baltimore. I got a "British racing green" car with white top and white stripes. It even has white mirrors. It is complete with navigation unit and keyless entry. It's going to take me a while to figure it all out. My favorite surprise features are the hidden glovebox and the ambient lighting in 9 choices of colors!

Ed is taking the car through its paces today by driving it to work. And wouldn't you know it's raining! Maybe tomorrow I'll take it back to the dealer for a car wash!
