Traffic


I was pretty blown away by how many people are on the street, I tried to capture it in a photo, but no photo quite does it justice. 15 lanes of motorbikes shoulder to shoulder, interspersed with people on bicyles, people pulling carts, women with their bamboo basket carriers, buses, trucks, vans, cars and, of course, people weaving through it all to get across the street, including Kathie and me! We decided it was safest to follow the locals most times.
