After a little “cooling off” at Bogyoke Aung San Market, it was time for my bus ride. Fortunately, getting a taxi here was a snap. I considered trying to commute my way to the bus terminal but I was afraid I would run out of time since the bus terminal was quite a fair distance away from the market. It was a good thing that I asked my other taxi driver how to get someone to bring me to the bus station since this driver doesn’t seem to speak English at all.
