Roger and I came upon this scene one day while touring the Syrian countryside, circa 1997:
Roger speaks to some travellers about the plight of their bus, the Happy Jurney.
Clearly, when this vehicle was christened, much was lost in translation.
See the cool stuff my classmates are showing and telling over at Mel’s Show & Tell.

That is funny (the name but not the accident) !
Oh the irony! Great photo!
Happy Jurney, indeed!
Oh, dear! I hope they got it going again. I’m sure it /used/ to live up to its name! 🙂
What a great picture and I love the dichotomy between the bus’s name and its fate.
That photograph made my day.
That’s a great photo! And I love how English words are mangled in other countries. Quite entertaining.
Happy Jurney, indeed!
Maybe it’s just the mood I’m in, but I am laughing my @$$ off at that picture!!
Reminds me of the kooky T-shirts my sister sends from Japan…
great picture, but that poor bus! i hope all worked out and the bus got going again.
Love the photo! You all have visited some amazing places.
You are such a world traveller.
The irony of it all!
Too funny!
