But when I say bus, I really mean a mini bus not much larger than a cargo van with seats that must be made for children based upon how small they are. There is no air conditioning. There is no bathroom. That brings us to our next adventure: Taking an overnight bus to Zakopane, Poland.
Based upon the available options to us, we decided to take the overnight bus from Zamosc to Zakopane. We had hoped for a larger bus, but of course, when it came, it was the same small minibus/van as usual.
After about 15-20 minutes on the road, POP! Of course, we blew a tire. The bus driver did not seem concerned about riding on a flat tire. Instead, he continued driving until he reached the next bus station. When he checked the tire, he realized that he did not have the right tool and needed to go all of the way back to Zamosc. Here is a clip of the ride back. Sounded more like a train than a bus:
The bus driver needed help changing the tire, so of course, Luke was there to the rescue. Sorry for the crappy pics, but it was after midnight and I's be tired.

About an hour or so later, we were back on the road, but with no spare and a bus driver who was in a hurry to make up for the lost time. Hurray!
