Alphabet Soup – K

Alvin

K

K is for Kilometre, as is shown on my speedometer, estimated range and odometer in my Jeep’s instrument cluster.  Kilometers are a unit of measurement for speed and distance in most countries around the world, including Canada. #jwab #alphabetsoup

Jezza:

K is for keys which are attached to a key ring attached to a key chain. This key opens the office bathroom which allows me to do my business if after drinking too much coffee with honey from where I was in the interior of which I jaywalked to get to. #jwa
