How far is it?
Oh, just walk
dis minutes!
How long does the bus ride take?
Oh, three hours!
I had a little smile on my face the first time we heard these two (often repeated) responses. I kind of knew not to expect anything. Soon the others also figured it out. Ten minutes of walking usually meant anything between half an hour and 45 minutes and a three-hour bus ride seemed to be a standard of 6,5 hours on the road. Gotta love the African time.
