The buses used for public transportation here are fondly referred to as “Chicken Buses” because you never know what you’re going to find inside or on top of them! They’re like our old yellow school buses that have been painted crazy colors and stuffed completely full of people. On Saturday the bus I was on was so full that three guys had to hold on from the outside. I don’t have a car yet, so I’ve had to use them a lot lately each time that I want to travel over to visit Yuli, and it is always quite an adventure. It typically takes three different buses to get over to her town and has taken me between 45 min and an hour and a half. The journey has certainly made me appreciate having a car normally, as the journey would be less than a half hour otherwise. But it’s certainly a very authentic adventure with incredible views of the Guatemalan countryside all the way there. I’ve kind of enjoyed the experience because it’s allowed me to just watch the countryside and get an idea about what each town is like. I haven’t taken any pictures of the buses yet, but here are a few I found on the internet:
