Sugar cane

Stopped along the road and brought a stalk of sugar cane. Have seen the kids chewing on sugar cane and wanted to try it out. The three white guys provided a lot of laughs for the locals. Don't know it it was green or if we don't know how to eat it but I'm not ready to trade my M&M for sugar cane just yet. Went to Kitwa today to get parts. You take your life in your hands everytime you drive on Zambian roads. Imagine an asphalt road with just enough room for two cars,put 200 potholes in the road every half mile,put 100 people walking or riding bike along that road every half mile then add atruck broke down in the road every 20miles after that add 10 mine trucks or busses every 15seconds doing 65 miles per hour and finnally top it off with a gully washing rain and you have an idea of our trip today .
