Great! Hey, whyot start one now with info about all the prep work you're dong ( or SUPPOSED to be doing!) Hook us now and you'll have a very attentive audience, I'm sure.
I'm tentivley scheduled to be "on the continent' mid november for two weeks. It's a work related trip and I'll be traveling alot. I would love to contact other bus drivers who have responded here as well as new folkes. Do you have a list of Euro bus forums??? |

I think it would be great if you and your family could post along the way during your 6 month vacation. A little loggin in to the Samba board from time to time to keep everybody abreast of your travels. Start a thread and I know you'll get alot of response's!
BTW, I just walked by the cul-du-sac to the burrito stand. I cant help but look over to the spot where the hippys were camped out and wonder.... |

Thanks for the kind words. Maybe I'll pop over to your forum board and have a look around just to see what all the fuss is about.
I would love to know what happened to those guys . I feel a little funny about calling them but I should just do it...
I'm heading out right now to help a fellow forum member ( bass heavy) figure out his tranny problems. He a new guy to The Samba so I wanna make a good first impression. I guess I've got a little bit of a reputation to uphold... |

Is there any way we can keep all this in the new thread? It'll be easier that way. _________________ Eric

Death bus, take the time to read the sucker. It's a weird journey from being to end. People from different corners of the world helped make this a true 'community event'. You're a part of this neighborhood, please share. |

I was one of those peeps who gave some advice. But due to age I just cant remember what happened to them, did they make it back home? _________________ 65 Bus, 72 Bus, 63 bus, 98 Golf, 92 Cabrio, 71 Fasty

Well, the thing is ... we dont really know what happened to them yet.
Their fearless Leader is posting "his version" of the story in sections. Maybe he types slow. Real, real slow. I dunno...
Whatever the outcome, I think it'll be strange. I'd be pretty impressed if the Green bus was still alive and kicking at this point. |

I heard the bus died in Arizona, and they're living in the hills around Sedona. There've been reported sightings outside a burrito stand late at night. _________________ The consequences of your decisions should not be confused with fate. |

Well, lets start the rumor mill spinning ... Maybe a contest to see who comes closest to actual fact? |

I read that same story in the local paper a few months ago. But I think it was Oak Creek Brewery they were talking about, not a burrito stand. I'll try to find the old article... _________________ 1976 Westy... almost there.
