This is what you pull behind the Unimog RM on your Cape town to Cairo
Caravan with the armor plate and the bullet proof glass; with Wayne
Moore and Bill Scott inside spilling cocktails and trying to track down
a rare early Wee Wind on the net with a satellite link. It is somewhere
in Rwanda and was abandoned on the original caravan and used by Lutheran
Nuns while teaching 12 volt repair to orphans. Then you find you have
driven into a tribal area where Airstreams started a cargo cult and
there are wicker huts shaped like Airstreams and "ooawly ba'am" is
carved in effigy and presented with offerings in hopes that another
caravan will appear and distribute polaroids of everyone in a 12 mile radius.
You meet up with a 2001 Excella going the other way, pulled by a two
cylinder Fiat 500 when you're halfway to Cairo, who tells you its a
snap.......... but you notice the bullet holes in the curbside rear and
have second and third thoughts and begin to think you should have
listened to those who recommended seeing more of the blue highways in
the good old U.S.A.
Then you wake up and realize the avocados and bean dip were a bad idea
just before bed and thank the powers that be that it was only a dream,
only a dream..................
