Hello everyone! This week was pretty uneventful. I was sick most of the whole week, so I only left the apartment a few times. Don't worry about me though, I'm feeling a lot better now. I got tested for Malaria and it was negative, so all is well.
There was one thing that happened a few days ago. We had to travel to Kasoa to get medicine from a pharmacy and on the way back we got in another Tro Tro accident. Our driver was going a little too fast and he was swerving around cars. One of those motorcycle taxi things (I don't really know how else to describe them. It's like a motorcycle that pulls a little box behind it where people sit.) pulled out in front of our van and the driver didn't have time to turn out of the way. We T-Boned the thing and it tipped over on its side. There were people inside, but luckily no one was seriously hurt and everyone was able to walk away. Our van however was not as lucky. For the next 15 to 20 minutes after the crash, the Tro Tro wouldn't start and it was leaking water. When we finally started going again the back door of the van opened and the people in the back seat had to hold it shut. Tro Tros usually have two workers in them. A driver and a mate. The mate calls people and helps fix problems like this. For some reason, this Tro Tro didn't have a mate. The driver had to pull over and try to slam the door shut like 3 times and he eventually just tied it with a rope. The car almost overheated a few times and we had to stop for gas so the whole ride took longer than 2 hours.
This week we also got transfer news. The news is that Elder Segura and I are going to be staying, but our two companions will be leaving us. Segura is going to be training, so I'm gonna be an Uncle and I'm just getting a normal comp. As I'm writing this my comps have already left me and my new one is on his way. Wish me luck!
I'll see you all next week and report how he is.
