Well, 18 hrs on a greyhound... been on that trip before. You know I luvs ya a ton & all that Leo buuuutttt.... I might just have to pass on doing it again for now. I'm still trying to get the feeling back in my heiny from the last one!
I always pack all my travel meals, a ziplock bag full of baby wipes & my sodoku. That tends to get me at least 3/4 the way through. My Ipod gets me the rest of the way.
gentlepaws: I miss my buddy out in B.C., and I'm going stir crazy here, so I'm planning to cross the country on a bus. It's a matter of money, I have none. $166.00 will get me there by Greyhound. Two days and 18 hours without a shower. Eating bus-stop food when you're a vegetarian. I've done it before in other countries, but I was younger then. I know that this is my last chance to visit my beloved mountains, not to mention that I've known this man since we were teenagers, and have kept in touch ever since.
I'm going to have to pack one hell of a lunch, Scotch included.
Thanks for reading a slice of my life. Paws
Its about time! I remember you talking about doing this a couple of years back .......... don't forget to bring a pillow and blanket too. You'll have a blast - its all in the attitude and spirit of adventure.
Take lots of pictures - you're going through our beautiful country and few take this opportunity.
For 1 whole day, riding the Greyhound bus is okay. But after that (2 days or more) it's crazy. You can't even take a shower or anything...YUCK!!!! You start feeling yucky about the 2nd day on the bus...I did it 2 times before, but I was younger also. No way could I do it now...NO WAY!! If the ride is 12 hours or less, that's fine with me.
