Traveling with my mother in Los Angeles. I remember a dream: being with her when for some reason it occurs to me that people there have terrible taste.
From afar, we can see another city, a panoramic glimpse of a skyline; it’s Vancouver. I feel I have to go there alone.
I take a look around me. Far away in the sky I see some elegant black balloons. As soon as I get there, I meet my childhood friend [person A]. Surely her situation can
afford to pay the high standard of living in Vancouver. [person A] shows me her trousers, she comes with two loose and comfy trousers; one pair is black and the other has brown spots.
Trying to be helpful I fold them over to put on a clothes hanger for storage.
[person A] takes me on a balloon ride in one of her own. In a gorgeous graphite black baloon, she takes off smoothly all the way down the avenue like in slow motion.
Not yet really high, she prudently decides to descend gently again avoiding all accident, because she spotted people crossing the avenue.
