Okay, maybe I'm being nitpicky, but how are Odyssey kids getting to the mall, Whit's End, etc. with just their friends? They aren't old enough to drive. Maybe Odyssey is small enough to walk, but then they take the bus to school.
Thoughts?
how do odyssey kids get places?

I am the only one to blame for this
Somehow it all ends up the same
Soaring on the wings of selfish pride, I flew too high
and like Icarus I collide
with the world I tried so hard to leave behind

I've kinda wondered that too. I thought that I had heard that Odyssey isn't a really small town, which makes sense because when the Washingtons moved they said they weren't leaving Odyssey just moving to the other side of town and Mrs. Washington would have to drive the kids places.
But I doubt that it's a very busy city. Probably no big roads or that kinda thing. Remember the town put up quite a fight when Glossman wanted to put a highway through Odyssey.
So, all that to say, I guess that most of the parents are comfortable letting their kids walk or ride their bikes places. I guess most kids ride the bus to school just because it's easier. I'm homeschooled but if I went to school and could sleep a little later if I rode the bus instead of walking I'd probably take the bus. So, there's my two cents.

Odyssey can be quite confusing at times. There are a lot of things about it that are just...confusing.agent3xq wrote:Yeah macnut pretty much summed it up for me:D
That's the one thing that my older brother really disliked about AIO and I think that's a big reason why he didn't like it as much as I do
