Hey CW,

Thank you for the photos. I was never able to get a photo of those “camellos” (camels) busses. In my mind’s eye, I thought the ones I saw were even larger (longer), the front part anyway. Heavens. I’m going to have to return to refresh my memory. Anyway, that one is certainly long enough. I had heard they can stuff 300 people into those death traps, but the one in the photo doesn’t look that it than hold that many. I suppose it’s the difference between a 747/777 and a 767. Notice the size of the cab that is pulling it.

As I said above but didn’t explain fully, the Coco taxis were suppose to be a cheap source of transportation for the Cubans until the tourists decided they liked them too.

There is a large mall in Panama that is using something similar to the Coco taxi to transport patrons from one section of the mall to the other. It is something a little new, an idea obviously taken from Cuba.
