Traveling home, and then the bus is on fire!

On our way back to Bornholm, with the “Route 700” bus, we were driving thru the Swedish costal town of Ystad, when our bus caught on fire in the middle of a roundabout.

Flames came out from the rear of the bus, while passengers were evacuated from the front.

We were picked up by the competition (Kombardo), who took us the last few kilometres to the ferry.

We ended up home as planned, even though we had quite the adventure during the trip. At least nobody was harmed.
