took a combi

I take my dog for walks on beaches in Troncones every day.

Differentiate between combis and micros. Combis are usually a van or a VW minibus. They usually have seating around the perimeter with an open space in the centre.

A micro is like a small bus. The seats are typically in 6 to 8 rows and are very tight. They make coach class airplane seats look like first class seats. I am 5’9” and my knees are jammed. I am 170 pounds and the seats are tight. Typically the single aisle is packed with people who are standing, sometimes for 30 minutes or more, hunched over due to the low ceiling. Sometimes one of those people is me.

I would take my 11 kilogram dog on a combi. I would consider myself disrespectful if I took my dog on a crowded micro as goes between Zihuatanejo and La Union.
