I went on a short business trip last week to a cover/jacket printing plant in Maryland.
To transport our group down there, the vendor hired a "limbusine," which (as you figured) is a bus with the trappings of a limo. We were supposed to have a lovely bus done in creamy colors with wood accents and huge leather chairs, but that bus was in the shop. We wound up with the stripper bus, which you could also call the prom limo on steroids. There were strobe lights, subwoofers and speakers beneath our seats, whirling red laser lights, and that fake stars-that-change-color paneling. And three TVs. The picture on the left was taken on our trip back to NY, which was a lot more subdued than our trip down to MD.
Sometimes, travel was made difficult because of the sheer size of our vehicle. It made me think of the time I went on a cruise and we had to take a tender to shore because the ship was so large it couldn't even dock at the island. I kept imagining little golf carts to take us from the bus to the restaurant.
