Day 18

This morning we relaxed and packed ready to leave for Kibungo. This journey usually takes 2 hours, however due to yet another tyre incident, it took 3 and a half hours. We were only 15 minutes away from our guest house when there was a loud bang and black smoke surrounding our vehicle. All we saw was the military police with their guns running away from our car. As the smoke subsided we realised the tyre had completely blown out. The car was then encircled with locals having a look at what had happened. Between John, Tel (our driver) and a few helpful locals, we jacked up the car to put the spare tyre on. After this we continued on our journey to the guest house. We arrived to find our dinner made and our rooms to unpack. Once we had a slight alteration changing our bed sheets, we settled in fine.
