Having explored the city we decided to venture a little further a field on the crazy little buses. It looks like complete chaos but I suggest Ken Livingstone gets himself over here to see how it should be done. Most people dont own cars so everyone uses public transport- literally every other vehicle is a bus. There are no stops you just jump on as they go past, and they go absolutely everywhere.
So off we went to places we could barely pronouce, first on a tatty little minibus, then transfering to small buses (actually estate cars where you climb in the boot too). No 4x4's here and many roads are unpaved, just like the school run in Chelsea! Sounds mad but it's a great system and cheap too (Dave can't stop going on about it -M)
As for the food, it seems all they eat is chicken and chips (our friend Bethan would be in culinary heaven), apart from the odd guinea pig, which Michelle accidentally choose for breakfast - yuck!
Techincal camera difficulities overcome, we've now added photos.
