The Motos

I just found this picture I took the other day. That is a DOG on the back of that man's scooter. It never ceases to amaze me the things that people can fit on their motorcycles or scooters. Matt and I both take one motorcycle taxi when we got to the bus station, and yes that means three adults (two large Americans) on a motorcycle. Fun eh? I think the most we have seen on a single scooter is five, three adults and two kids. No joke. When our group came to Dong'an a few months ago, one eager 'moto' (motorcycle taxi) driver managed to fit two of our friends, and their suitcase on his taxi. The driver held the suitcase in front of him and peeked up over the top while he drove. I regret everyday that I didn't have my camera handy. It was just about the scariest thing I have ever seen.
