When work requires it I get to drive this jeep around. It has real personality and is
fun to drive most of the time.

This Tuesday I met a guy named Ron from South Africa. He is taking two and a half years and going through a bit of every African country on mainland Africa, and parts of Europe! Starting in Cape Town 10 months ago, he hopes to end up in London in September of 2015. Oh, and he is doing it all on his bike!
Gamboula was to be his first stop in CAR, so I rode my bike down to the border, helped him get across, and rode with him to Gamboula. It was more of a rest day for him since he was only coming about 15 Kilometers, so I showed him the sights of Gamboula. Wednesday morning he was going to head further into CAR and out the southern border. After gathering reports about the last day and night, we deemed it unsafe to travel any further East or south, and planed a new route.
I rode with him for about an hour to a nearby river, before saying goodbye and returning to Gamboula. It was fun to be just a very small part of this much bigger adventure.
