public transit in el Salvador

what and amazing experience! the busses, at times, are packed. so many people they are almost falling out. every single bus is painted a different color and decorated by the driver(s). It is quite an experience.

there is not really a bus stop either, the bus just stops where-ever you are... i use the word stop loosely... the bus slows down just enough for you to get on... and then speeds off again. the busses are also pedal to the metal... it is common for the busses to pass other vechiles and even other bus. needless to say it is quite an experience.

as i am sure you are wondering how am i able to post if i am supposed to be several hundred miles off shore? Well, we are still waiting and trying to get everything ready. so hopefully soon!

we are all very anxious...
