In my hometown, people are using horse cart as mode of trnasportation and its very easy and convenient too for travelling. I find this as cheapest and exciting too. The cart is tied to a horse and the cart is full decorated with various soft desinged cloth with a clean bed down. I like to trvel in this HORSE cart..but still we can manage to go only for shorter distance and in villages only.. Did you ever travelled in HORSE carts or anyother carts

Travel by horse cart, or horseback is only economical if you already have the horse. That's because going out and buying a horse will add to your cost of living, but if you already have the horse then you are just finding more uses for it. Of course, horses are cheaper to buy and maintain (ok, assuming you don't go out and buy a champion race horse ;~D ) than a car, so if you sell the car and buy a horse, you have saved yourself some dough. On the other hand, if you don't own any land to keep it, you'll pay through the nose in boarding fees, and if the boarding farm isn't close by then you need the car to get to your horse anyway. So, yes, it is a fun mode of transportation and in the right circumstances, economical.. but then again, you'll need one heck of a pooper scooper too. ;~D

I'm only can see the horse cart in the film, we don't have that kind of transporting here. I like to travel in it, it's sound exciting and I think I will enjoy myself on it. I was have a chance to ride a camel when I studied and KSA more than ten years ago, and that was the first and the last time I riding an animal. I hope I will have another chance.. He3.. Happy Mylotting...
