The Deluxe Bus Tour

Back in July, I had swore that I would never join another bus tour. So what the hell I went on another one? Well, because I had been wanting to see Lu Gang’s old streets and buildings for a long, long time. (Lu Gang literally means “Deer Harbour”. It’s located in Central Taiwan and on the West Coast.)

To fight against the awful karaoke noise, I brought along my Meizu Mini Player full of Buddhist music. And to avoid wasting time on waiting for the late comers, I brought The Sutra of Hui-neng (“非常壇經”) by Master Hai Yun (海雲法師) with me. (Master Hai Yun is another good story teller, BTW.) On top of that, this was a deluxe bus; each row only had 3 seats instead of the usual 4, although it was still on the narrow side and didn’t have much leg room. But, anyway, my strategy worked and this trip was much more comfortable than my July trip, thank goodness!
