BANG!!!
Julie’s back tire exploded – it had also had enough of the rain! Luckily it was just a few hundred meters walk before we found a roof under which to shelter and repair it – let’s say this was no ordinary shower!

The boys also got a chance to ride on a fork lift truck and to sail handmade paper boats in their pool.
