New Bus's Year!!




In the last New Year’s Eve in London, my friends and I went to watch the celebration, fireworks and all the noise made by people there. You probably think I am going to write about it now, but NOT!

After the celebration finished, we went to find a bus. But all the public transportation was suspended on that day, the New Year’s Eve day, and we could not find the bus that stops near our hotel. We had been movin’ for 2 hours till’ we found a police officer whom we had this conversation with:

. Hey!

. Hello guys

. We are tryin’ to find a bus or even a taxi to get to the hotel, but all the roads are still closed for the celebration, which means no cars or buses are allowed to enter here, and we are lost.

. I think you can use the underground, it is free tonight. Do you know the way to it?

. No! We do not even know where we are. Actually, We have been thinkin’ of takin the bus we took when we first came here earlier, but so far, no signs of buses....

. Fair enough, all the buses will operate again in one hour, we can wait for your bus or use the underground.

. Ok! thanks we will wait for the bus because the underground must be packed now! Thanks for your help

. My pleasure, bye.



We wandered on the streets till’ all the buses operated again. we took the bus and........

the bus was overcrowded, I had never seen something like that. There were no available seats, most of the people were standing and above all, all were drunk! I said to myself:” this trip is goin’ to be a disaster!” However, My friends and I managed to find seats after 5 mins of standin’. My friends were lucky enough to sit beside sober ones, but I was unfortunate when I sat with an intoxicated guy. He looked at me for one min and said:

. Is this your first time flyin’ on a plane?

.
Wha
t?!!

. This plane is rubbish, no food, no TV, no beautiful attendants.

. You must be wrong, you are on a bus and on the land... not flyin!

. This flight is the worse ever, There are no toilets.

When he said that, I started to panic, I mean if he had peed, that would have made my night the worst ever in my life. Luckily, he did not do that :)

Anyway, he kept talkin’ while I was lookin’ through the window.. ahhh, the window was VERY dirty from outside and impaired my vision for the entire journey...(if you call it a journey)

The journey home took only 20 mins as if Schumacker himself was drivin’ us! he jumped two red lights and crossed the corners as if he had snow-tyres on the two-storey wheeled object!

After we arrived, I got off the bus, and stood still for a couple of secs tryin’ to comprehend what I had just been through that night.

This trip was exciting enough to stop me from goin’ to London again! I have had enough :)


Live long and prosper
