Why you shouldn't fall asleep in buses...

Or in my case, why you don't get too engrossed in a book. We were catching the bus from Ein Gedi to Jerusalem and thought the last stop was the bus station...

I looked up earlier and saw backpackers still on the bus. I looked up again and it was just Mel & I - and the bus driver was leaving the bus!!! Before we could catch him, he'd walked off and into a house!


In true Aussie style, we took a few photos and videos, then realised we didn't actually know how to open the door (no Mel, the red buttons don't do anything). I tried waving at some women at the bus stop across the road, but they thought we were crazy and ignored us (I wonder why?) So, there was no choice - I opened the driver's window and climbed out, knocked on his door and got him to let us and our luggage out.

Oh well, we got home in the end...
