We didn't really appreciate the hotel last night which is full of trees and pools and very comfortable, I think we deserve it. Up early though to face our car, changed the air, fuel and oil filters, rearranged the front bumper again, fixed the headlights, changed the oil (well, Owen helped a bit) and took the sump guard off again to straighten it with the help of Grant's team, but no sign of the rear shocks that we all so deperately need and are on their way from the UK, they are stuck in customs and they will not release them. Lots of plans are afoot to make up some and poor Owen has got his work cut out.
This afternoon we went to visit an SOS Children's Village, which is the charity that we are supporting, and were shown around by the very charming Frederick. They have 16 houses which have housemothers to look after 10 orphans in a family envionment. It was a very friendly and caring environment in an oasis away from the slum city life ouside the gate. We were both hugely inspired and convinced by what a great cause it is to support.
Back to the carpark to more gloomy faces, no shocks yet
is that your car?
