060810 - The weirdest on-the-bus-experience ever, BOL

Well, we leave La Paz around 3pm. It's gonna be a long ride to Tarija, appr. 21hours. The bus is pretty much crowded. Across the aisle there are two empty seats. Hamster and I are speculating on them. But we still have to wait cause we keep picking up people all over La Paz. As we leave town an old guy, who was sitting in the back, moves to these places. About 2hours later we hear him opening his belt. Well... Then he stands up; it's a little fellow. About 1,60m, I would guess. He pulls out a plastic bag --- and starts ing in it. As his business his finished he throws the bag out of the window. And now the cerimonical cleaning procedure begins: He starts washing his entire body with some baby lotion. The whole bus soaks up this smell. I just want to get out.
Guess, I am not sitting on these seats as he goes back to his original seat. ;o)
