... that) $20 USD for 10 liters. The BMW seemed to run with the stuff. I think that is was blended with kerosene because it costs bugger all.
There is a fuel shortage here in Zambia. Not much petrol so hopefully we can sort out petrol tomorrow. We are off to South luangwa national park tomorrow. Will split the day and camp half way because the trip is about 600 ks
All good
Cheers miles

Heading to Lusaka now and the road is being replaced (thanks very much to the Chinese Government) thus numerous detours which made a long trip even longer.. we came across a place called Moorings Camp and it is great in the middle of nowhere green grass and a happy array of puppy dogs. Interestingly there turned out to be a number of these farms where you can kind of camp on the front lawn of the farm house, very nice but a bit on the smelly side. We think they were farming pigs.

Brittany was smushed in between Lindsey and a young big-boned Zambian woman with a baby. The lady took up half the seat and was breastfeeding her baby the whole way while he kicked Brittany.

It also suggests that, in a similar vein to Livingstone’s raindoctor friend, she respects the practicalities of Western medicine and the thought of that it is a viable alternative to her work. I half expected her to defiantly deny that our friend was ill, but her awkward response to the news demonstrated a reluctance to reject modern medical practices.

Jambo! 2 new pax joined us in Lusaka, Kylie & Andrew, a married couple from New Zealand who seem really nice. We also lost 2 people, Vicky & Craig who were lovely so we'll miss them.

But only when reaching the top of the hill on the other side of the Dam, we would encounter Zimbabwean border control. So off I walked along the dam ...

... the airport for a long and painful conversation full of wishy washy talk in an office before the Zambian customs officials just decided on a seemly whim that yes, they could bring the medical packs into the country. Why the long drawn out process, I will never understand. Once they returned and we could see that we had not been deserted in this strange country, we had lunch before leaving for Kabwe. That was the last time we had food we truly ...
