Gotta Love Public Transit

It's been a busy week - had to travel to MAREP's H.O. (north side of island) twice in the past 4 days.  Got up early (5am) to catch a bus & got a 'Pound the Road' one... ok, they drive crazy fast.  Then transferred to another bus & during rush hour they sure pack them in.  A bus has 15 seats & at one point, there were 22 people - some sitting on others.  This doesn't include the 30lt petro can that was filled I must add that was squeezed in too.  Thank goodness the lady with a box of chickens couldn't fit in!  Very interesting to see how the conductor shuffles passengers and re-packs at every bus stop.  It took 2 hours to reach Sauteurs just in time for my meeting and Christmas lunch.  Here's pictures of the team I work with (my boss Afzal is 2nd from right) - we went to Petit Anse Hotel.
