Our Drive to Bamenda
We have taken a little time to travel this last week. After being in Banso for a while, we decided to travel to the town of Bamenda to meet with our boss and spend some time with dear friends and colleagues. Sounds like fun, except for the road in between Banso and Bamenda. To say it is rough would be a gross understatement. Imagine a road over hills and mountains, only paved in the steepest portions and extra muddy due to the fact that we are in the rainy season. Then imagine that instead of a 4x4 vehicle which is made for this sort of travel, you hop into a 2-door Toyota Corolla. Getting the picture?
I don’t want to make it sound like I hated the trip, but I should say that the highlight was when Ayla threw-up after being jostled so much for several hours straight. I have never seen her so white. But luckily her little act of regurgitation made her feel better and the rest of the trip went swimmingly.
In the end, we made it to our destination safely and have been enjoying our time in Bamenda. The drive was worth it.
