    It really is!

    I mean, the adults in formal wear leap and run.

    The children are unchaperoned as they dart through the traffic and play games of chicken and tag with the streetcars and automobiles. And no one around them finds this remarkable!

    Did you catch that moment, when the traffic lulls for a bit on the left side of the frame, and a man on a white horse gallops through?

    And this was not some flash mob! This was daily, unremarkable, urban life!

    Thanks for saying hi, by the way. That made my day.
