Another Flat Tire


















On the way to the bush a few weeks ago, we had another flat tire. Tanzania roads and tires don't get along. The funny thing this time was that the flat tire happened when we were on the 'good' tarmac road. As Bill got out and started to change the tire, he discovered that our jack was not working properly. Well only a few moments went by and two lorries (what we call big trucks here) stopped. They had a high-lift jack and Bill basically just had to watch while these six African good samaritans changed the tire. We were able to be on our way and were only thirty minutes late arriving in the village....and in Africa, that is still considered on time!
