Yes folks even though my career is going well, I still have to take Greyhound once and awhile. This was the trip I took: Edmonton to Regina 10 hours. Ouch I know.
When taking the greyhound I’ve always believed that the best way to do it is to take an overnight trip. I hate losing an entire day on the bus only to get to a place and go to bed not to mention the bus is so damn boring that you might as well sleep to kill time.
If the bus was just a direct route, with no stops life would be ok. However when the bus comes to a stop they have to make announcements, which wake me up and I am not one to go right back to sleep so how annoying is it to wake up every three hours to tell you it’s not your stop only to have another hour before I fall asleep again.
One good thing was that everyone on the bus was quiet, sometimes you get some chatty people on the bus who keep some people up, but this trip all was quiet.
Of course there is a direct route to Regina, but we stopped in Lloydminister, North Battleford, Saskatoon, Kenaston, and a few I can’t remember. But I arrived safe and sound and it only cost 120 bucks. When you look at gas prices I think I did O.K.
