Bicycle by motorbike

I was picked up from the hotel by the bus company and driven to the bus station by car. There, I waited 20 minutes and then the minibus left. What I’d been told was a 6 hour journey took just under 5 hours, mainly because the driver liked to go fast! We stopped quite a few times to pick up and drop off both passengers and cargo. Buses seem to be used as delivery vehicles as well as transportation for humans. When I arrived in Kon Tum I got a taxi to the guesthouse and decided to relax for a bit.


I’m staying on the edge of town and in the late afternoon I walked 5 minutes down the road to the suspension bridge. It felt like being out in the countryside with views of fields, hills and the river from the bridge. I took some landscape shots but then my attention was drawn to the variety of items being carried across the bridge by motorbike. Once again, the traffic is my blip!
