Fireworks and Transportation

So I posted a picture of the fireworks we saw on saturday. Which are absolutely crazy because burning embers would spray all over people. They definitely have different persective when it comes to safety. For instance the other picture is riding on the bus. There are three types of vehicles we have traveled on so far. The first is the taxis which is by far the most exhilerating thing due to multiple near collisions with people, dogs, and other cars. The other form of transportation we take often are called combis which are small vans that are overloaded with people and there is guy yelling at you to get on and off at a very fast rate. These are quite interesting to ride especially if we have to stand because they are not made for tall people. The large buses which the picture shows are much more comfortable but sometimes you do not get a seat and you have to stand for several hours. The fun thing about the buses is they go to the more remote areas where the local farmers pile in with their vegtables for the markets making the ride even more interesting. The most eye opening experience here is how the pervians tend to not worry about things for instance, Fani who has the baby twins simply rides with the babies on her lap or in the far rear of the taxi and lets the babies play and walk around as we race down windy mountain roads. I am glad everyone is enjoying the blog. Thanks for responding.
