Random Act of Kindness: Day Twenty-eight

Random Act of Kindness: Day Twenty Twenty-eight 
Our Mission: Free Ticket to Ride 
Our Location: Metro Stop at Franconia/Springfield 
Our Target: Four lucky metro riders! 


We had purchased four all day passes to ride the metro. After enjoying a wonderful day in DC touring all the museums and monuments and while eating lunch we decided our act of kindness would be to pass on or passes that would be good for four people to ride anywhere in DC until 3AM as a pay it forward "ticket to ride". We went up to the first lady and offered it to her and then her friend was about to purchase another and we gave her another ticket. They were shocked and very grateful. There was a man waiting in line and we offered him a free ticket to ride. He looked completely surprised when we told him he could go anywhere in DC that he wanted to for the rest of the night! A twenty something girl was nearby and she heard us giving away tickets and said "I could really use one". We passed our remaining ticket on to her. They were all really thankful and smiling....We were singing the Beatles song "they all got a ticket to ride...because we care" ♥
