Part 2 of my "farewell" video is mostly composed of a bus ride aboard route E, from the Eastern Shores area to Aventura Mall.  The E, while perhaps annoying modern day, younger transit planners with its many twists and turns, was a vital and sorely missed route that was an anchor of North Miami Beach bus service throughout its existence (1968-1980 and 1981-2023). Some bus spotting at Aventura Mall is included, where we see other routes that were soon to be eliminated or heavily modified.

It was here that my phone began to tap out, and I subsequently spent my next ride, on the westbound 99, charging it, while space limitations kept me from documenting much of the northern alignment of route 73, which was soon to be truncated. But I captured a lot, and I hope you enjoy this!! (A slide show of still pics is coming up next.)
