All of a sudden bump, bump, bump...and Dad says we have a flat tire on our trailer.
We get out and I quickly start taking pictures. Mom, April, Sheldon, and Lilly go and find a tree to stand under. We quickly draw a crowd..but they stand at a far distance. Emma is walking Ode and Dad is trying to get the lug-nuts off. But they won't budge. Finally, he gets them off and puts another tire on. We are about a 1 drive from a town that has some IMB workers. It was an adventure! It took us about 9 hours to get to Nampula when it would usually take us about 6 or 7 hours.

| That day was so hot! So we tried to stay as cool as possible. |
 |
| In the middle of nowhere! |

| Walking Ode |
 |
| Poor Dad had already taken a shower that morning because he got so sweaty doing the last minute things on the car. He also got a bad sunburn! |
 |
| CIA how cool! This man wanted to help dad for money. |

| Trying to see what the white folks are doing. |
Well now we can say we have had a flat tire in Africa! YAH! At least we got there safely!
Hugs,
Meg
