another flat tire????

so, i had another flat tire on saturday on my to school. this time it was the back tire. unbelievable. if it happens again, i am going to buy new tires. life is such an adventure.
we have electricity today which we are very thankful for. i am currently watching the electricity lines being installed outside. they don't have the nice trucks with the lift here. the workmen just climb up the pole and do all their work with a rope tied around them. i will post some pictures of the workman. on thursday a friend and i took a city bus into a nearby township to get some lunch. well, i think the bus got lost or something because we definitely didn't go the way that i was expecting. other people on the bus where trying to tell the driver the way to go, but he definitely seemed lost. i told the driver where i wanted to go and eventually he told me that i had better get off because we had come to the end of the town. well, we had no idea where we were. we decided to get into a petty cab( a three-wheel bike with a bench seat in the back. it is a taxi bike). I told the driver where we wanted to go and 10 minutes later we arrived at the place we wanted to be. it seemed so funny though that the city bus driver didn't know where he was going.
