Good Memories: True Missionary Confessions

This is a video of three of us on a bus in Asia late '05. We were coming back from the beach and waiting for the bus to fill up and take us back to the capital. The food vendors kept bugging us to buy food (I think we sat there waiting for well over an hour or two). G had the great idea to convince them we were really into the karaoke that was playing on the screen in the front of the bus. So, what did they do? They decided to sit down and join us in some singing. Then, when other vendors boarded the bus they told them they were blocking our view and we were all singing together. Gotta love it.

Perhaps that was a mental block...we sat there FOREVER. I remember SO not wanting to go back. I don't know how I survived 4 months after that! (Well, things did die down in late Dec when y'all moved in)

yeah, red curtains just give the bus that "1st class" feel. True, it is better than the non-aircon city buses (not that most people besides me took that).
