Since midnight, the bus drivers and "cobradors" (people who collect the bus fare) have been on strike for higher wages, and it's supposed to continue until Monday night. It's not only Salvador, but it's the whole state, so people depending on the bus to get to another city aren't even able to travel. 

It takes me an hour and fifteen minutes to walk to school, which I decided against this morning when I heard that certain faculties were closed, or with only two-three students in classrooms.
