poligono 108

the bus I ride to the Faculdad de Educacion is called the poligono 108, but nobody seems to know why. what´s interesting about the bus rides is that there is no map out there for the bus system, you just gotta find out from someone else or by trial and error of how to get around town on the bus. The price went up this year also, to $4.50 from $4 (those are in pesos, not dollars). They are typically not air conditioned and the bus rides are slightly crazy with aggressive driving. to make the bus stop, sometimes there is a bell you can ring or more realistically you can yell BAJA! and they will stop.

Some of you may recall my very first bus ride by myself four years ago...and a bus inspector got on the bus and asked for my travel receipt. I thought he was trying to sell me something so I kept waving him off.
