I just returned from my hometown. It took almost 14 hours. The most tiring part was the second bus ride from the seaport to Bogor, West Java. The bus stopped many times to pick up passengers. The bus driver wanted all seats to be taken. There were only a few passengers for such a long bus trip. With only a few passengers, the bus driver would get no profit. Even they would lose as he had to buy fuel and meal. I understood if he stopped to try to get more passengers.

That's a very long and tiring bus ride. I don't think I could endure that.

I also guessed you couldn't. No one else could but they had no choice and had to put up with that.

Wow, yeah that would be a tiring trip. I have a local bus I take occasionally that goes around my suburban city, but I once had a bus driver who talked to me the entire time. I was polite and just nodded my head. The problem was that there weren't that many people on the bus.

It would. What bothered me in addition to that long tiring trip was that buskers turned up on the bus and songs. If their voice was nice, it would have been another story.
