My most favorite thing in Iowa City is Cambus.
It is amazing bus system, because students drive Cambus from very early morning to midnight. Also, it is free to everybody, not only students but also other people including foreigners or visitors. Inside the Cambus, there are seats for wheelchairs,
It is amazing bus system, because students drive Cambus from very early morning to midnight. Also, it is free to everybody, not only students but also other people including foreigners or visitors. Inside the Cambus, there are seats for wheelchairs,
which can be assembled, when the disabled got on the Cambus. One day morning, I took a Cambus to go to school and one guy who sat on the wheelchair was also waiting for the bus. He got on the bus lastly and a Cambus driver operated some machine to lift the wheelchair very skillfully.
After that, he made some space to place the wheelchair near the rear door, folding up three seats. He moved the man in wheelchair into the space and then fixed the wheelchair
not to shake with some chains, making sure the safety of the wheelchair man.
It impressed me, even though it took more time than ordinary days!
Drivers were already trained how to deal with people in wheelchair or people with physical
disability. It is amazing!
I was able to see valuable spirit in Iowa; it was mutual respect regardless of person's appearance. I like Iowans who are taking care of the weak, even in Cambus.

I agree that it is particularly heartening to see people helping others. The cambus system is great, you are right. :) I hope you will still write for your blog and let us know how you are doing!
