Our New Car


We just purchased our new car for Dakar. It's just like the Montero here in the states. Mitsubishi made these especially for the Dakar Rally. It is a diesel, so hopefully we can find some biodiesel while we are there. Maybe this would be a great time for me to experiment with making my own?

Garden


It's May and we just got our last round of shots-ouch! Three people emailed us about renting our place, so that's good. Hopefully they will work out. The picture is of the garden to our bungalow in Dakar.

Jen Bulluck got me a gift card to REI for my Birthday and I bought this really cool, rechargable via USB port lantern. No batteries required. It can also be charged by spinning the attached handle. They say that the electricity goes out about once a month and that we'd need a good lantern. Thanks Jen!

I am getting excited to move.
