[It's a bad combination, Wanda can see that at once. Shaking her head she takes half a step away from the main crowds, over toward the wall of a bakery nearby. There, they're out of the way.]

If you're not good with crowds you're best off staying away from the downtown area during holidays. They're good about announcing where celebrations are held, but it's a bad time to try to learn a city layout if you don't like weaving through people.

[When Wanda had arrived it hadn't been quite so chaotic, not until the storm arrived anyway. But a storm is a very different thing from a festival or Carnivale. By Riverview standards even, Carnivale is pretty spectacular.]

I'm headed out of here myself. I can lead you somewhere quieter on the way if you want.
