Travelling in the HUGE buses!



The two Sleeping Beauties - reclining in their seats , ready for a long, long bus ride. Note the ear phones - movies are screened on the buses, the curtains are closed as it´s night-time. The seats lie down and a foot rest can be elevated. We´re given a blanket and pillow for added comfort. Meals are also served. These buses are two levels and have two bathrooms - one on each level! The Peruvian buses are a sharp contrast to the Bolivian buses. I had so many what seemed like ´near death experiences´on the Bolivian buses.
We often use this time to practise our spanish. We´re getting good at BINGO - played on the bus in spanish. We´re also currently practising the phrase,
¡Soy mas joven de lo que parezco!
(I am younger than I look!) As yet we haven´t had an opportunity to use it - but we´re ready!
