Day 15: A loooong drive to Harare

19 Novenber 2013

The morning started off with the wake-up calls from the Swedish boy searching for the car key at 5 in the morning. We needed to leave the camping site by 8 am as we have another long driving day to the capital city Harare. Before breakfast, the man who make custom T-shirt already arrived with our order from last night, which we have printed the route of our trip on the back with Academia bus on it. The T-shirts come in different colours, which some of us chosen to have black, blue or even red. After we collected our custom T-shirt and had breakfast, we finally hit the road but the drive today was not so smooth at all. We have in total stopped by the police 13 times in one day and each time took us about 10- 15 mins to mention how nice Zimbabwe is and how much we all enjoyed it. We also went through 5 tolls in order to get to Harare. At 8pm we finally arrived at the church and the youth hostel with warm welcome dinner. The dinner was so fantastic especially after a long driving day. It was really nice of them saving us from eating cans of baked beans and rice.
