Today we have to drive about 200km’s , that’s quite a distance with these hills.

After a few km´s Dirk-jan is stopped by the police, 14km’s too fast. That’s gonna cost you 30.000 shilling.. @*((^$#)(

With these hills the Ford needs to cool down, so we stop for a while.

In front of us is a big loaded truck in troubles, the have quite a big job to get it running again.

After a few kilometers it gets less steep and is more easy to ride for the Ford.

A man on a bicycle runs downhill with 4 full cans of water. He goes 45km per hour, amazing!

When we stop under a tree to get some lunch, a few children come to us, Inge gets a Frisbee and we throw some with them. Real fun.

After lunch Inge takes the wheel of the LandRover, and we are stopped by a roadblock.

Lots of business here, we buy some fruits

Since Inge is behind the wheel, we ride a lot offroad, she runs it like she never did something else before.
