Unforeseen events

It was a long and fatiguing day also for the support team. Today we moved the camp. We woke up at sunrise and got ready. After having packed up camp we left to place the fifth water resupply. The last they find in places in which the land is truly difficult. We thus decided to deflate the tires of the off-road vehicles a little to get better traction for the route. But there is nothing to do: the vehicles which keep sinking into the sand more and more. During the break for lunch, if you can call it that, we were visited by a little bird which Renato photographed. The moving of camp took longer than we thought and we had to set up the tents in the dark. More serious setbacks: during the telephone contact with Carla we blew the transformer for the PC….fortunately we had another in which we could use to make contact with you all.
