While we were walking, we came across a group on the road on two-wheeled scooters. Apparently they are electric, self-balancing and pretty effective for short distances on reasonably smooth surfaces. I had previously seen a patrol officer on one in, I think, Los Angeles airport, and before that a very ‘cool’ group along the banks of the Seine in Paris.

If there is somewhere for the shopping, perhaps this is the future for urban transport.
