Sometimes - we travel in style...........(see below) Manchmal reisen wir mit viel Komfort - und manchmal (siehe unten) |
"The crazy house" of Dalat, a free-wheeling architectural exploration of surrealism.... "Das verrueckte Haus" in Dalat, eine an Gaudi erinnernde Konstruktion in der man sich "verlieren" kann! |

Re: Transport, continuation from top.....
and then, "exactly the same thing" can look quite different a few days later:
Public transport hits an all time low
Department of tourism and transport - "No comment"
Minister for tourism and transport holidaying on private island in Med.
Overnight sleeping bus from Nha Trang to Hoi An, 12 hours, known to locals as "the roach express" - bed bugs travel free!
Air-connditioned via the bus drivers granny, coughing into garden hose whilst sitting on a sack of live chickens. Bedding resembles a service station tire repairers snot rag.
Steel framed bunks and beds held together with baler twine and bubble gum. Bottom bunk serve as sleeping quarters and toilet.
Imagine having both legs blown off after having stepped on a land mine and being carried to the back lines by 4 stretcher bearers. Well, that sums up the comfort of the bus. Other than given the choice I would gladly have shot the stretcher bearers and crawled over rotting fish and used condoms to get to Hoi An.
Yours sincerely
The toad
Does Johnny Walker make the bed bugs drunk?
