Guyana Buses and Trucks

It is entertaining to drive down the streets of Guyana - or I should say - to be driven.

I love the sights but I feel for the senior couple drivers.

This tour it was Elder Evans who drove us around and he did great! I loved watching Sister Evans sweetly pat his arm when a temporarily terrifying moment occurred instead of screeching loudly, as I might have done if I had been sitting in the co-pilot's seat. He did say that his arm gets worn out after a day's driving.

A fun sight are the sayings painted on trucks and buses. I was surprised at first that so many of them are religious, but as I got to know the Guyanese I realized they are faithful people.

Here are a few I was able to catch this week:

"Don't die blond" - I'm not sure where this thought came from (not many blonds in Guyana)


"Don't take worries...& give God troubles"


"Stay focused" - excellent advice


"Innocent"


"Biblical Fact"


And our very favorite


HURRAH FOR ISRAEL!!!
