Hi Shirley,

Thanks for dropping by and I was away on vacation so I had overlooked your post.  I'm glad to see you though and now that I'm back, I'll be posting a number of new things once I get going.

God bless,
Cheryl

Hi Bill,

Yes, those are interesting, esp. the one with the 12 live chickens riding on the scooter! Thanks for posting your pictures. That bus looks like it might not be so reliable....or on its "last leg" as we say in the states. I'm sure you guys have had some fascinating adventures in India and Thailand. You sound like a very adventuresome couple. Nice to meet you!

Take care,
Cheryl

Another Vehicle. 'On it's last legs' This ferry crosses the river every hour. And it does not lift the ramp! And it is very very rusty. Some day's the ferry is packed with scooters and the odd car tries to squeeze in as well. Total chaos. Goa India.

These guys ferry Motorbikes across a river using Bamboo Coracles, the bridge fell down during construction. So they just left it. You can see the concrete supports. and the remains of the bridge. Some of the motor bikes are quite big and heavy. We seen one with 5 yes 5 bikes on. plus the riders. Crazy.

The locals pay 20 Rupees, but they wanted 100 from us.

Bill, those are really interesting pictures! Thank you for sharing. We take so much for granted here in the states. I agree with Cheryl, that poor bus. I am not brave enough to get in one of those small boats with even one bicycle!

Of course, tourist always have to pay more!

Great to see this forum active again Cheryl.
