I’m craving banana bread.

I have no idea how they finally got it out of there, but they did.
On the way to Thondwe, the closest trading centre to me, is a very steep hill that sharply inclines again. They have been bridging the bottom of it so that vehicles can scale back up it. While this construction has been going on, there has been a big sign with red lettering indicating that the road is closed to heavy vehicles (not that much with a motor comes in this way).

Somewhere around 30% of men and 80% of women in this area are illiterate and most don’t speak English.
And thus there was an 18 wheeler truck full of bananas blocking the way to Thondwe.
