It always can get worse – ‘no seat in a bus’

Posted on 13th July 200916th August 2017

If you have ever thought that life sucks and everything at that moment is really bad, think twice as it can just get worse. There is a Russian saying “Trouble is never walking alone”.

Ferry arrived to Hainan island 7:00 am. One could see the strong smog over the Haikou from the water when we were approaching the port. Though the total view was somewhat impressive. I even took a panoramic picture.

Smog over Haikou

Bus left the ferry and everyone got into the bus. I got myself comfortable and suddenly the driver tells us to leave and take all our things. We must change a bus, since we are only 6 people left travelling to Sanya and all other passengers departed at Haikou. Once we arrive to another bus I found out that there is no space. The couple from Nederlands managed to fit together in one bed! Two people in that tiny bed! I had no choice, but just to sit down on the floor.

I was so angry. Then one woman was shouting so loudly, complaining about something for awhile. My anger was just rising with every moment. That damn floor was really uncomfortable and  that b**ch is sitting on the bed and complaining? Suddenly I roared in all my voice “Will you shut up!!!”. The silence has followed and I felt asleep for a moment… Didn’t last long though, because one of the passing passengers woke me up! Damn it!

Good thing I have reservation in Peter Hostel. At least I will have a full length bed and can go enjoy the beach! Comforted by that thought I was waiting until the bus will arrive to Sanya.

At some point I stopped feeling my butt and my leg from that green spiky plastic mat on the floor…
