I am thrilled about the first several hours of this adventure. It seriously has a 60’s flavor. There is a community of lovely people out here. I have spoken at length with several of them. Its as if they are on a picnic. The megabus is great. It is slightly disorganized in the South, but soooooo inexpensive. I got the impression that a lot of these people were living dreams of travel, just as I am. They are funny and kind, and in love with their children. The space is about as comfortable as an airplane trip from Europe in 2nd class seating. (This is giving me practice for going to Europe. I found a ticket from New York to London for 700.00. Less than that if I go to Ireland instead. Paris would work also. I am ready to fly!!!! I want to hang out in pubs, drink their beer and talk with people. I want to hike in England. I want to do some art there.)But today I cant wait to see my friend Jude and to talk with her for hours and hours. Also, to Jay and Marie, Jude’s parents who my heart has adopted. They listen well, measure their words, and speak “True” speak. We find friends in the most wonderful ways!!!
