On the way to a mountain resort...one of the most exciting part of the trip....apparently after travelling for 1 hr the driver and guide realise that the 4 hrs route to the mountain resort has been blocked.... bus driver was finding an alternative route that will take 4 hrs....so our tour guide wanted him to take a "short cut" that will in theory save 2 hrs.....so we spend 1 hr moving back to the original position......1 hr plus plus more to reach the short cut...then to our horror....we have to go thru a tunnel with a height limit of 3.4m. The bus driver keep on emphasizing and gesturing that his official bus height is 3.65...so he wasnt willing to take the risk....but in the end the tour guide got him to take the tunnel...he went in very slowly .....i suspect there's less than 3 cm gap between the top and his bus......i know that sort of feeling coz i drove a tall van before.....it was a frightening sort of feeling....so after the tunnel....we drove for another 15 mins before we reach the train station.....what do i mean by train station...it actually means the bus is going onto a train that will bring us across a mountain range by cutting directly thru it... Posted by Picasa
