What is its meaning?
'Before I got to walk the aisles with groceries' =
1. Before I got to walk the aisles, with groceries in my hands
2. Before I got to walk the groceries aisles
This sentence is from a blog by a University College Dublin's teacher of English:
'Before I got to walk the aisles with groceries, my most scenic route ever had taken me to what was called public baths in English with the most confusing Russian equivalent that Google Maps had next to the original name of the place of ирландские общественные бани.'
I also have a problem with 'route ever had taken me'. Can 'that' be omitted here? Should 'ever' be placed before 'had' here?
Is the entire sentence built correctly? It sound unfinished as 'route' lacks a verb.
