Tuk Tuk Goose!

This title actually is a very poor description of what I'm going to blog about, mainly because tuktuk is not pronounced like 'duck' but more like 'Took' a clan of the Hobbits in Lord of the Rings (if you don't know what I'm talking about, you should immediately go out and rent the entire trilogy and watch it....but more specifically for this reference you should watch Bilbo's speech at his birthday in the Fellowship and feel ashamed you didn't get my clever reference before!)
Basically, I love tuktuks.  They're essentially moto/motorcycle drawn carriages...although carriage makes it seem fancier than it is.  And BYU owns one!  Seyha, our driver, basically will drive us wherever, whenever for FREE (actually he's paid by the program costs...so not quite for free)!  And it's awesome!  His tuktuk has BYU decals all over it.  And boy, it's fun!
In a tuktuk, you're right in the middle of traffic and you can just watch the chaos happen.  On a bike you stay as far away from the traffic as you can, sometimes even driving up on the sidewalk!  But in a tuktuk you are right in the middle of the roads, swerving around bikes and motos, blasting in front of cars.  The rush is crazy!  And maybe not entirely healthy....but I still love it!
Here's an article about the BYU tuktuk from BYU Magazine: http://magazine.byu.edu/?act=view&a=3312

The BYU tuktuk and me!
