you have done it and the current weather conditions you
will need to write this up in your report
- For 10 minutes count every person (over the age of 5) that
walks by. Avoid delivery people or people who walk by more
than once
2. Parking count
- Count every type of parking spot on your street.
3. Questionnaires

You will be in the same groups as fieldtrip 1 and the locations are
also the same.
