A useful detour

いつも最短の道で駅へ向かっていたが、工事で通れなくなった。別の道を歩くと、小さなパン屋を見つけた。店の人と話すうちに、町の催しも知るようになった。遠回りは不便だと思っていたが、知らなかった町の一面に気づくきっかけになった。

Reading & meaning

Construction blocked my shortest route to the station. On a different street I found a bakery, and conversations there taught me about local events. I had considered the detour inconvenient, but it revealed another side of the town.
