I travelled by horsecart &also by bullock cart.Both of them r really enjoyable journeys which were not available nowadays for our children.In our childhood we travelled on them to go our grandparents as they were staying ina small village.Cart travelling is a memorable & terrific experience.Isn't it?

My Grandfather took me fishing in his buggy. He hitched the horse to the Buggy and we put our lunch in first, then climbed up on the seat slapped the horse on the rump with the lines, and off we went like a hurd of Turtles headed for the shore.WE went throught some roads that were not passable via car because of the mud and a washed-out bridge. WE had no trouble getting through and soon we were at the lake.I saw some boats out on the lake and i asked Grandpa if we could go out in a boat? He said," Not today! I think we will just fish off the shore!" So we did. Grandpa caught quite a few big fish. The big ones wouldn't stay on my hook so I juat caught a couple small ones.

I have travelled on a horsecart when I was a kid going to school, 25 years ago. I still see those horsecarts in the neighborhood, but I don't ride them anymore, their destinations are only specific to certain locations and I don't go there anymore. My youngest is amazed of the horses in the scene and I think he wish to ride on it's cart someday just to get close to the horse. Someday, I'll make his wish come true.

Yes, traveling is always a memorable and wonderful experience. I have only once traveled on a horse cart. I was in Poland in the countryside. It was going to be a long walk in the rain to see a lake so I got in a cart pulled by eight horses. The cart took me and some other people to the shores of a gorgeous lake. Wow! The water looked a silver like blue and the water was so calm. Oh my! It was so very cold to dip my feet in it. Behind the stunning lake I saw beautiful green mountains. I have seen bullock carts on the island of La Digue in the Seychelles. I didn't choose to travel on one of them. I walked around and cycled about on a bike that I hired. It was perfect for getting over the hills to the other side of the island. We also stopped off at lovely spots for snorkeling. Most of all I love to travel by train and then I can see the passing scenery during the day and sleep in a comfortable compartment at night time.
