connections pg 23

After many hours, we are finally out of the city and on the road, though still moving very slowly.
"Where are we going?" I ask Kim repeatedly, after it seems like we have been travling forever.

This part of the book reminds me about hurricane Katrina when it hit New Orleans and everyone having to evacuate. Traffic moving slowly and no one being able to leave.

  1. This passage, as it reminds Victoria, also reminds me of every evacuation that has taken place in recent years. It's crazy, people move slow, and it takes forever. I think that I will never forget the day that hurricane Katrina hit, that was a very sad day for most of America. And the effects of it are still being felt now.
