Well, here it is......the famous el camino....okay so it is really not an el camino, it is a VERY small truck, but I didn't know how else to describe it to you. It is quite hillarious to drive around in the big green Landrover for two days and then drive this thing the next day. Sharon and I missed half the scenery on the way to Tooseng on Saturday because we sit so low to the ground in this thing. It isn't the prettiest car in the world, but I am very thankful to have it and that it runs well and will get me to and from where I need to go. I am much more priviledged than most in SA by having a vehicle at all. Most stand around waiting for rides or they just have to walk for miles, or take the bus taxis. I have one of the few vehicles in Tooseng. Mavis doesn't even have a car. So, although my little white horse is not asthetically pleasing it is a HUGE blessing that I am most greatful for.
