Here is a goat riding raven! no real meaning, just fun.
Doctor Doolittle! 'Push-me-pull-you's actually exist!
Our trip down to Nairobi was a long trip; and this is the photo documentary of our stops!... here is our first break down, the vacuume seal didn't feel like working.
The second time the vacuume seal thing decided to go on strike Barbara and I had some fun with the camera.
That night we made it to Marsabit; got a flat. The next morning attempted to get our 2 spare tires fixed. The one refused to seat so the guys tried using petrol. I thought a fairly large group of spectators gathered for the normal tire fixing procedures... that number triples as soon as you add fire!!!
We had a late start, but at least we had a spare tire! Here's the U-joint that broke... which I understand is not a good thing.
Not only did the prop shaft let loose and wreck some stuff... but it also ripped out all sorts of wires, making a very big mess(we were there for a while, got some nice sun tanning in!!) But God is good and in the end Steve and Scott amazingly managed to get it going.
Next breakdown was the distributer.
At least this breakdown was near some really cool rocks! Mom I got you a neat purplish one!
We didn't get as far as hoped that night... and as soon as we parked at the hotel the tire went flat. The jack wasn't tall enough, but rocks are always available.
A new day, we even had spare tires... and not half hour out of the town that we spent the night in smoke started to billow up from the floor. The axel bolts broke and the tires were rubbing where they shouldn't be. So we spent the day there. The WHOLE day!
We now know the true meaning of "till the cows come home." We were literaly there until the cows came home! But it was a great time to relax, enjoy the sun, team building and creating great memories! We did eventually get to where we were going, just two days late.
