Driving a Land Cruiser across Africa: Democratic Republic of Congo: Lubumbashi to Kinshasa. 
Worth reading for the adventure story, but also for the perspective on government and society.

That link seems as though it got chopped off. Looks like it should be 
this.

Actually, I think it's a Safari thing. I had to go into HTML mode to get the URL in. That might 
help you troubleshoot it to see if you can make a workaround.

It looked like the iPad put a newline in the middle of the pasted URL. I think the solution is to just go for the laptop earlier.

until I wrapped it up in HTML (which changed the line-wrap).
