Strange encounter on the highway
Returning the cars at the docksThe day was spent mostly driving to turn back the cars to the shipping company for loading on containers for shipment to France.
The road was not too bad, mostly 6 lane highway, with the peculiarity to encounter shepherd and its herd of various animals or a truck coming on the wrong side for obscure reasons. However the fourteen 2CV Citroen did perform miraculously well, not a single accident in more than 10,000 km (exactly 10,100 km for us).
Overall our car did very well, if I except two blown up tires, two front shock absorbers shot, few torn rims and a collapsed frame, everything was repaired mostly with a big hammer.
We are going to miss our car, we feel like a knight without his white horse or Lucky Luke without Jolly Jumper (this for the French readers only).
We only spent 4 hours waiting for the custom officer to accept our cars and 2 more hours to reach our hotel, so there was not time to visit Bombay, which is tomorrow program.
