At 6.30 in the morning, the bus collected Ba and his family from their home. After picking everyone up, the
bus continued North on Highway Number 1. It crossed the Dragon Bridge and stopped at the gas station to get some
more fuel. Then it left the highway and turned left onto a smaller road westward. This road went between green paddy
fields, so people on the bus could see a lot of cows and buffaloes. The road ended before a big store beside a pond.
Instead of turning left towards a small airport, the bus went in the opposite direction. It didn’t stay on that road for
very long, but turned left onto a road which went through a small bamboo forest. Finally, the bus dropped everyone
off at the parking lot ten meters from a big banyan tree. It parked there and waited for people to come back in the
evening.
