Rail Life “Flickr Pic” of the week – Long waits and Light Rail

October 19, 2008 by Rail Life Leave a Comment

As we enter the home stretch here in Phoenix, we will soon know if the long wait for light rail was worth it. I am going to use this "cheesy" analogy in comparison with one of the valley’s favorite restaurants; the "world famous," Pizzeria Bianco. (just a block north of the new light rail line!) You see, because of this great pizza, many of us have learned that some things are worth waiting for. (I learned that while dating my wife, too!) While the pizza is great, you will usually find yourself waiting in a really long line before dinner. Since I was downtown early in the morning yesterday, I decided to stop and take a few pictures of Pizzeria Bianco without a million people standing in line. I thought this pic of a black cat hanging out in front of the restaurant was pretty cool. It kind of reminded me that you will be "lucky" to get your food in less than an hour at Pizzeria Bianco, but the wait is worth it because the food rocks.

Remember… Rail Life has a "Phoenix Light Rail Group on Flickr." Basically, we want to share some of our pictures from the community and to allow people to add their pics as well. These can be light rail related but we also want a favorite spot, restaurant, sports team, community etc.
