The 29th Floor Incident

We were eating a fabulous surf and turf and wine pairings in our condo when the fire alarm went off. There were looks, discussion, gophers popping out of doors; "are you going?" We eventually took off after much discussion about what to grab - Karen grabbed the Beaujolais Nuveau and not the gamay - and we headed down to the lobby. Happily we are only on the 6th floor and not the 20th floor. We arrived downstairs just in time to witness the 17 or so police officers come in with what appeared to be assault rifles. One officer flashed her badge and asked if anyone was from the 29th floor. We all looked at each other; 'no', 'no', 'no'. Then the officers talked among themselves about getting everyone out of the lobby. We took that as our cue to leave. We wandered a few meters away and started chatting with a passer by who made an excellent drinks suggestion; the Keefer Hotel. That's where the photos were taken. If you get a chance, try their drinks. Bring your gold card though because they are expensive.
