Bus Ride
Bus Ride
Now this is a blast from the past for some of you hardened travelers. But if they don't get too many airplanes in the air, or travel becomes more like that of an expensive luxury only the wealthiest could do in the beginning of world travel.

Im afraid that would make my ass hurt, 12 hour flight from BKK to Amsterdam was bad enough.......
Re: Bus Ride
Thing is if for some reason flights fail too the minions, such has being too expensive, then there maybe light at the end of the tunnel, someone mentioned the train, and now maybe a bus.
Always "hope" but never "expect".

Re: Bus Ride
the old bus trip
The original Magic Bus set off from a cockroach-infested office on Amsterdam's Dam Square and almost levitated across border posts on a cloud of hashish smoke. Travel was a state of mind, an inner journey fuelled by narcotics, an escape from suburbia and the emptiness of unexamined lives. Its travellers were stimulated by writers like Ginsberg and Kerouac, Beats who invented the "now life" in reaction to the deferred pleasures of their parents' world.
In a nation run by swine, all pigs are upward-mobile and the rest of us are fucked until we can put our acts together: not necessarily to win, but mainly to keep from losing completely. HST
