Good shots Pete. Great Commentary. Driving there actually looks "fun" to me but i'm sure it would get tiring. The guys on the scooters and motorcycles with no helmets are pretty nuts. Better fix the horn!

There definitely comes a point after a couple days where it becomes a lot more fun in the crowded bits and a lot less stressful - you just have to get past that initial "this is insane we are all going to die" vibe.

It is always a bit crazy when a bus comes so close to you that it causes your little tin vehicle to rock madly though!

Horn seems to be working somewhat now, *fingers crossed.*

I'm impressed that you managed to put this video together from the road. Nice work.

I'm with Mike: I know there were really stressful times - sounds like Malena almost lost her shit on days 6 & 7 there - but when it's all edited together with a soundtrack it looks like a lark.
