The long road to Dakar...

Well, today has been quite a day for the team. The first leg of the trip from the Casamance went well and they got through the Gambia in good shape. Just after re-entering Senegal north of the Gambia border one of the vans developed a serious engine problem. Of course it was the larger of the two.

They have been limping along with a truck in the convoy pulling the van. When they got to Moussa's home town they picked up a pull bar that allows them to move at a little faster pace. It is anticipated that we will get word when they arrive in Dakar.

This has been a looonnnnnggg day for them and I would imagine they are pretty worn out. I would ask you to pray that they may be in good spirits despite all of this and get solid rest upon the arrival at the guest house tonight.

Keep checking back. As soon as I get further word I will post an update.
