Baby On Board
Tue 28 December 2010
Most folks get around on motorbikes here. Motos can fit two or three adults. Kids get sandwiched between adults, or held in an arm. Once I saw a yap dog nonchalantly perched on the running board.
Yesterday I passed a couple with a sleeping baby tucked against a hip. He was floppy-armed and oblivious, as zonked out as any kid in a car seat. I've never seen that before, but it makes sense. Makes me feel bad for those parents desperate to get their baby to sleep, though. Their arms must get really tired.
