The people in the seat behind us are our good friends
Patrice Van Vleek and Glenn Gunterberg. We're doing this tour - actually the Ireland tour after this one - just for them.
The ride is somewhat unsettling; the two lane roads seem narrower than the bus. In each of the seemingly hundreds of blind turns the bus has to slow down - almost stop to prevent running into someone coming around the corner. The ride takes over 3 hours - more than expected.
This is a very deserted area. A farm house every 5 miles or so and a small town every 20 to 30 miles. (Should I talk like the locals and use kilometers?) As we drive through the towns, we see cars parked on the same side of the road, leaving a single lane.
I observe drivers coming from the opposite direction. Like our bus driver, they know the limitations of the roads. Everyone is courteous.
