Congo
Digging the truck out of mud to the rich city of Point-Noire
Congo has always fascinated many people from the stories you hear on TV to the Michael Crichton bestselling book “Congo.”
I can tell say that the little time we spent here was worth it!!! Crossing over from Gabon we stayed at the border crossing station over night. In the morning we continued through checkpoints until we hit a fork in the road as the National Guard told us to take this road as it is the best. Long story short is we got stuck for seven hours in the mud and it took a total effort to get the truck out…SEE PICTURES BELOW
In the end we crossed into the second biggest city of Point-Noire which was unbearably hot and humid. I spent my day there walking around the city of oil expats photographing everything I could as my grandma and grandpa spent time there in the 60’s and 70’s. Great Place with great people and now onto the next place…

Wow, what a great adventure. I was in Rwanda for our spring break and saw the gorillas.
