Paying of the police...
... a Ugandan girl, speaking Swahili (my Swahili´s still somehow rusty) so the police turns to her, and in Swahili asks her if I´m the one, meaning the one she´ll snare and squeeze money out of… actually telling her to make sure she´ll get it all!? WTFCK Arushas finest, encouraging someone to steel my money and understood whatever she can lay her hands on … and that’s not the end of it ohnooo… just before returning my drivers license he tells her ...

colours to save money. Just wait for the next rains to come and he'll be
another plain old white horse, hah! More of those funny things on

zebra) just needs a little space. Its hard enough keeping track of the
bloody lions. But I guess when your time is up, your time is up.
That about sums up our safari, lots of animals and lots of fun.

Serengeti Lions and a Crucified Lamb...
... back on the road, the egg held and we no longer overheated. But solving one problem had just made us aware of another one, we broke down again, this time apparently because of a dodgy fuel filter. The boys tried with their own bush repair of a biro pen but that didn't hold. We broke down again twice. The second time a very nice man, Emmanuel, offered his assistance. He couldn't do a quick fix so he offered to tow us to the mechanics. It was getting dark and it ...
