Taxis in Taxco

Our troop moved on and the bus delivered us to Tasco where we would spend the next two nights. The first thing that everyone noticed was the number of VW bug taxis scurring throughout the neighborhoods. It was so interesting! The streets were very narrow and every vehicle had to be much smaller than a normal city.  We watched the vehicles dance and swerve around corner after corner. At one point in our stay, we took a bug taxi over to the gondola when we explored one of the resorts at the top of the hill.  Of course, I made a video of the drive. Then there was the corner just outside the restaurant at our hotel where the traffic had to make three-point turns to get on up the street. Someone captured the dance of these vehicles and posted it on YouTube. I placed it below also.



Here is that little video from YouTube that shows the corner just outside the restaurant in our hotel. Yes, it was just like this!
