Stuck

See how Nala is tilted to her right?




Yeah, she isn't supposed to be like that...

Today we got stuck in the mud for the first time! I'm sure we will tire of it quickly but the first time was exciting :)





Toni and Jenny point to poor Nala's stuck wheels


Keep in mind this a super heavy duty truck. But the wheels were sunk into the mud by about a foot and a half and when they spun, there was absolutely no traction. 18+ tons is a lot to move.

So these guys show up and tie a chain and a very thick rope from one truck to the other.



Helpful Moroccan talking with our driver


But Nala snapped the rope.

A different truck came and, with lots of smoke and mud, was finally able to help Nala out.



Whoop whoop! We're out!
