Carving the Brazza Road

The Brazza Road is an absolute disaster of a highway linking Point Noire, Congo's only port, with its capitol city. No one knows what to expect other than everyone must drive. Susan's driving terrifies the others, especially Lovie who's already totaled car. They manage to make decent progress despite terrible road conditions only to receive news from locals that rebels have taken over the road ahead. The only way forward it to pay to join a military convoy the following day thus trapping them for the night. The next day, the dust from the convoy swallows the team's cars limiting their visibility to less than a few feet. The team hits a yet another bridge, this time with Lucy driving only to realize that the tire looks like it's falling off the production vehicle. With the threat of rebels looming, they are forced to continue on. Everyone is covered in dirt, exhausted from the constant struggles and near cracking when they come to a river they must forge to make it to Brazzaville. No.
