The Transportation Issue: how do people get around town?

More ways than I ever thought were:
a) possible
b) legal on highways
c) still in use lo these thousands of years later
d) stylish
e) kooky
f) safe
g) efficient

here goes-

fishing boat, amorgos, greece

moke, amorgos, greece

armored cars

around town

ready to take a load up to Nemrut Dagi

beach shuttle, amorgos, greece

heavy work

bumper cars


circus train

cotton, near Harran, Turkey

cow/car ferry near Nemrut, Turkey

2,500 year old wheels, ephesus, turkey

delivery man, mardin, turkey

do you need a spatula to drive that sandwich?

  1. OMG!! A feast of a visual essay - this collection is too fantastic for words. A Weed Wacker Harley! Ominous Explosive Turnip Truck Before the Great Spill! Peek-a-Boo Hot Air Balloon! And, a la Little MIss Sunshine and I think my fav - Joy Bus!! Goats and dust and worn tires and doorless vehicles and crystal clear aquamarine water. Whatta mix. I love it all.
