Break Down




Life in Guinea would not be complete without break downs and vehicle trouble. Last week pete went to get supplies like he does every week. It's usually an all day job. He leaves at 8am and returns at 6pm or so. Well somewhere around 4:30 or 5pm he called to say that he had car trouble. He was driving the white patrol at your right. He was fully with food and the coolers on top so he couldn't leave the car at all. He was able to get ahold of our mechanic friend who came to help him. The little vehicle at the right towed Pete home some 15 miles maybe even up some decent hills. It turns out the problem was that his radiator hose blew due to low oil. Now it's one week later and he's on a supply run again. Hopefully there won't be any breakdowns!
