Watch the motorcyclist!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hopefully I caught your attention with the title of this post.
Today was a crazy day to say the least!!!

None of us have been feeling well the last couple of days. Stephanie and Veta both have a cold and Veta has been running a high grade temperature.  I thought I was having a heart-attack last night, but it turned out to be BAD heartburn and diarrhea.  For those of you who know Pap, I slept with my head elevated last night.  I'm not quite sure that all those years of him sleeping with the bed elevated like a roller coaster did anything to help his heartburn.

We decided to take Veta to the doctor today since she still wasn't able to shake her temperature.  The clinic that we were trying to go to was apparently right down the street.  When we asked the motorized rickshaw driver if he knew where it was, he said yes.  What should have been a five minute drive turned into 20 minutes and we ended up at a hospital (short trips taking longer than expected is becoming a common occurrence for us).

After taking a self-guided tour of the hospital, we decided that we needed to go find the clinic.  We hailed another motorized rickshaw.  When the driver took off from the light he didn't see a motorcycle that  had run the red light.  BAM! We smacked right into them!  We hit them so hard that the lady riding on the back of the motorcycle lost her helmet and it rolled into the middle of the street.  The crazy thing was that they didn't loose their balance, and they just kept going.  Stephanie and I could not believe what just happened.  Our driver just yelled and blamed them for running the red light and took off.

Another crazy adventure to add to the books...

This is the view outside our balcony...it kind of gives you an idea of our rickshaw and how bad the traffic is.
