a new microwave oven

 In order to buy a microwave oven(yes, I do need one), yesterday noon, my roommate and me went to 2000 Broadway(at Laguna st.).
 A Spanish woman is going to move back to her country and she posted a moving sale on the internet. I send a mail to her and would like to buy her microwave oven. She replied me immediately and the price is reasonable. After checked her location we made an appointment with her. Her location is not too far, so we can get there by the no.30 bus.
 Everything seems to be going well. However, we got a problem after getting off the no.30 bus; because the house number here is 700, it’s far from no.2000. Further, here isn’t any bus to 2000 Broadway. Poor us! We had walked through 11 blocks when we got no.2000 and the steep road is quite tough. It goes without saying that we almost exhausted.

 We got the Spanish woman’s place finally. When she opened her door, she was packing. Although she is busy, she is quite friendly to us.

 We were shocked by the microwave’s size. It’s a FAMILY size microwave oven, quite big one. The friendly woman tried to find a bag for us; however the bag is too small to pack this microwave oven. Therefore, I decided to hold it in my arms. This microwave oven is heavy and big, but I have no choice.
 After walking down 3 blocks, we got the bus stop at Union st. . We took no.45 and back to the Safeway supermarket then transfer into no.108. Finally, we were home, and I carried the microwave oven all the time in the buses. I like this “new” microwave oven, not only it works great, but also it is an extra value good.
