The day had been well spent with friends - and journey back was fun till we hit a road block. The traffic had come to almost a stand still. In between listening to the music, kids' fighting and honks we made the following observations:
- Few people were smart and went the wrong way- even bullying the oncoming traffic to slow down and give them way. Makes me wonder why only few people do it? When will it happen that everyone will go the wrong way?
- Finally we crawled on to the reason for the slow moving traffic: an accident where a truck load of fanta had a breakdown
- What a site it was - it was free for all:
- We had to stop to let two people scamper away with a fallen down door panel of the truck - they must be really looking forward to making some fast cash with it.
- Then as we were passing by the treasure chest, a small scuffle broke out - and unmindful of the traffic people broke out from the truck like a swarm of bees onto the right most lane. Made us wonder if a bottle or two of Fanta is really worth a life?
- Anyway, as we passed by we noticed that many more trucks, tractors and buses were slowing down onto the side so that the occupants could satisfy their thirst
