Tipping the cow


Yesterday on my way to Grace Orphan Care, my mini bus started to slip and slide in the mud, until we had slid halfway down a ditch! Oh my gosh! That was probably the most frightening thing ever cause we all seriously thought the mini bus was gonna tip over. And once it tipped over, how were we gonna get the bus back onto the road? Damn bus and it's no traction wheels. Anyway, it took one hour of digging and pushing before we were able to get the bus moving again. What was even more frightening was that the bus sliding wasn't the scariest part. No, it was the masses of men who were opening the mini bus windows and trying to shout instructions/directions at me as I drove the bus to safety. It was also the three guys who jumped onto the back of the bus in celebration when we got out of the mud. And it was the group of men who chased my coworker Ruth all the way up to the support group, demanding more than the 1000k we had paid them to push us out...Yikes!
