How would you like to take a ride in the Green Hornet? Warren managed to get some video of part of the ride back to Berlin one day this week. It was the only time that Kimberly has ridden in the cab...because the teacher that usually rides there was gone that day. That left a little more room at the rail in the front for Warren, Mario, and me. Usually all four of us are trying to crowd into the only standing positions in the front of the truck bed. Everyone else has to sit on the wheel well or the edge of the sides...very uncomfortable positions. Most people let us "gringos" get the prime standing positions but Mario will fight for a prime place of this own...he is a very big guy and I'm sure the riding is much harder on him than on most.
First you have to climb on board. Sometimes the truck doesn't stop for long and you have to hang on as best you can. (Not for us, though. They always give us plenty of time to climb into the truck!)
Then you just enjoy the ride. (The bandanas are for filtering out the constant dust.)
Commuting to and from school is an adventure all it's own!
Great to see you in action!
