Countries I've been to so far are: Ireland Belfast Spain (Malaga, Benidorm & Alicante) France (As a lil nipper) Thailand USA (New York City, Buffalo) Canada (Hamilton) As I've said before on here many of times, I've been to Ireland more times then you can shake a stick at. Reasons for as I have family over there and not to mention their lovely Irish Fleet. I've been using Dublin Bus since God knows when but I can tell you's that I've been on a Leyland Olympian (Cummins) GAC Citybus (KC), Bombardier (KD), Mercedes Minibus (MA) and so forth, I've seen so many liveries from Dublins Bus which started off from my eyes which were Two-Tone Green, Core and Cream, Orange and Blue and now the permanent livery Yellow and Blue. When I was around 5 or 6, I believe my Uncle had the liberty to take me into Broadstone Bus Garage and so me around their site which was amazing in my eyes. Spain I've been to a few times just to get a bit of sun and go "Bird" watching . Magaluf seems to be my 3rd home in Spain as I've been getting fond with the area and the views of the beaches and pubs are great there. Thailand, I've been to as well, since I have a few family members over there. Last time I've been to Thailand was in 2010 and there bus fleet is absolutely abysmal.

The only transport I've used before is Dublin Buses in Ireland - this was in 2007 when the Volvo Olympians were still a plentiful and the Volvo B7L Wright Fusion artics were still running the 4. A nice, clean fleet, abeit with the old glimpse of etching but nothing like London. Any Volvo fans would love the fleet as it's over 90% Volvo apart from around 10 Trident ALX400's - otherwise, it's full of B7TL ALX400's, B9TL Gemini's, some very lovely B9TL Enviro 500's & some B9TL Enviro 400's. The Prague system is something else. It's integrated (much like London but way better!) so the buses, trams and Metro are all run by the same authority. Tickets are available in 30 or 90 minutes validity or a day ticket. And no matter which ticket you buy, as long as its validated you can use any method of transport to complete your journey. With one ticket.
