Taking Buses to the Beach, Use the Blue ones!!

Recommended Posts

We were just in Barbados Last week and decided to go to Folkestone beach

for the day, we got lots of info here on how to get to the bus terminal,

just a tip, when you take the bus, there seems to be 2 types, blue

public buses and yellow smaller private buses, the Yellow bus drivers will

try very hard to get you on their bus, but don't, go on the blue public

buses, these were safer and nice, we took a yellow bus back and had

a bus ride from Hell, Blaring profane music, had to stand and we were crammed in like cattle, then one of the 3 guys working the bus gets in a fight with someone along the street, after waiting 10 minutes one of the bus guys chases use off onto another bus, all the while I am freaking out here waiting for a mob scene!! next bus same deal blaring profane music, but we finally made it back, what a memory, unfortunately not a nice one Folkestone was fair water was rough and cloudy we walked down the beach to a nice

outdoor restaurant ( Yellow building) and had a great lunch of the local flying fish. What an adventure, what ever you do, wait for the blue Bus!!!!!

 

Cheers

Gerry

You didn't like the local 'color' ? :)

Didn't find it "exotic" ?? :D

 

 

She's got a point, people.

The blue, Government-run buses are for the sane civilized people

the yellow ones are for the counter-culture. ;)

 

The smaller minivans(white with a maroon strip, ZR license plates) are not too bad however

despite being privately run!

From time to time I catch one of them

 

 

Sounds like the guys above got caught in the rush-hour commute?
