They are filthy AND YOU DONT WANT TO USE THE BATHROOM!!!!! I would rather PEE MY PANTS then use the one on the bus. They have no way to wash your hands, usually there is no toilet paper and none on the bus just in case. If your not as skinny as a board you might as well not even go in there. And besides if the last person does not close the lid on the toilet...all its contents slosh around and ends up ALL OVER the seat, floor and walls. I was very careful on how much fluids I drank to make sure that I DID NOT have to use it. I'm just saying I wouldn't advise riding the greyhound bus. Next time we have to go back to Georgia (my mil health isnt good) we are going to take the Amtrack train. And with the greyhound bus, You CAN'T get up and walk around. Where as on the train You can. I hope you have a wonderful trip and are able to see a quilt show or two. :)
Greyhound trips used to be sooo romantic in old movies .. :roll:
