Friday - Bus Trip to Zhenjiang

---

Friday - Today we will board a sleeper coach and travel to Xiaoyan's home city of Zhenjiang, China. The bus ride was very funny. Who could imagine you could put bunk beds three across, down the length of a bus... hmmm...


We watched Chinese movies, ate Chinese food (which they brought on board, half way) and listened to Chinese music. This was the most comfortable bus trip so far. My back side wasn't killing me after this 5 hour bus trip so, not very bad!


I don't know how anyone could sleep though with the bus driver honking the buses horn ever minute or so for about 3 of the 5 hours...... I would estimate he honked the buses horn over 2000 times it that 3 hours. Welcome to the wonderful world of Chinese driving. I would never dare driving over here since everyone drives a bit crazy!!!
