For the 2011/2012 season a NEW sleeper bus from Kincaid
Coaches in Oklahoma City has been booked. Even though it cost more..... it
was deemed necessary. The bus is five feet longer, giving each seat / bunk
an extra five inches in length, plus it has one row of regular recliner seats
in front. Capacity of 44 people. (4 more than the old bus)
Another bonus is the improved rest
room. You will swear you are in the middle of a rose garden and will not
want to come out.
And remember..... No $25 a bag charge
each way for your luggage and ski gear.
Wouldn't it be great if we lived in Colorado or New Mexico and could just walk outside, put on our skis, and go? Yes, but we don't. Instead we live in Texas. If we want to ski, we have to get there somehow. How? Sleeper buses!
Advantages:
1. Have you ever driven for 14 hours in your car to Colorado?
In a snowstorm?
2. Someone else is driving through the snow and ice, a professional
driver.
3. Although it's not your bed, it's nice to be able to catch
a few Z's on the way to the slopes.
4. You meet the most fascinating people on the bus - ones
you will ski with or room with.
5. There's room to play games on the bus, like cards.
6. If you don't like who you are sitting with, you can get
up to go to the bathroom and never return!
7. In the morning, looking for your shoes under your bunk,
the blood rushes to your head
and immediately wakes you up.
8. You can eat other peoples food that they brought for their
personal enjoyment.
