“There are no shortcuts to any place worth going.” – unknown
Part 1
When you go with a tour group when travelling, you tend to be awake when the tour guide is explaining something about the place you are going to, you get excited to see the iconic places, you listen to the secrets that the place has to offer. But most of the hours spent is when you are on your coach seat looking out the window. Most of the time too, because of the busy schedule you tend to snooze off when the coach driver is speeding its way from city to city.
I am not a sleep person. What I mean is, I just sleep when my body is fully in bed lying down…so when travelling and it’s daytime I get to appreciate the countryside from the lens of my camera through the large windows of the tourist bus! Though some of them may be blurry…I still get to appreciate it’s awesomeness!
Many of you in one way or the other have taken photos too but some don’t take the cut since the bus may be on the move …or some other person is on your way … or the bus suddenly turns and you get off balanced haha
Here is my own series of “On the Road” and during this time that travelling is not an option, even travelling on the passenger seat can also be fun!
This is sunrise on our way to Switzerland…
Taking pictures from the coach is so frustrating, but it’s true that it’s often the only opportunity to see that specific view.
Yes, and it’s a view that we may never get to see again!
Beautiful, unfortunately i can sleep anywhere, and tend to miss things like this 😴
Haha my husband does too. I have lots of these shots so I might as well save it here. Thanks for stopping by, Ali!
Beautiful photo! I do that all the time. I now make my husband keep the front window clean so I can take photos on our roadtrips. So many great sights “on the road”!
Yes that is true… it’s a pity if you miss them! Have a good day Lisa!
i am like you, fully awake on road trips. this is beautiful…some of the best captures are taken from the ride! 🙂
Yes, so true Wi. And as the saying goes “Laging handa!” haha
