Transportation - Addendum

So, bus breaks down today on my way back from eating at this really good dumpling place. My friend and I basically bussed it down there to save money, but ending cabbing it back the rest of the way since the bus broke down. (Well, actually, one of the tires exploded.....poor granny who was riding her bike beside the bus got the scare of her life.) Not that I haven't seen this happen before. You often see broken down buses by the side of the road, but I guess I never thought it would happen to me. Oh well, at least I'm running through the gamut of the Beijing experiences during my time here.....
