Well I have only been here about 48 hours and decided to get behind the wheel. My host family has a Nissan Patrol 4WD manual transmission. I was so thankful that I had driven a stick shift for 10yrs. I guess God even prepared me for driving here long ago. I was already used to driving on the left since that's the way us Aussies do also, so that helped. The dirt roads and huge pot holes will take a bit of getting used to. The terrain is quite hilly so have to be mindful of shifting gears. The actual traffic is .... I don't know what word I want to use... horrendous! I must be a very aggressive driver or I will never make it. I had a good strong grip on the steering wheel I can tell you that. Anyway we all made it safely home.
