Today was only waiting, waiting, waiting!

Today we wanted to start the kiln again, but the hydraulic cylinder that has to push the kilncar in the kiln was leaking very badly. The repaired one came back very fast, but had a different connection adapter. We had to wait the whole day for the adapter and at the moment we were about to go home it finally arrived. They put the repaired cylinder back, but then discovered there was almost no oil left in the hydraulic pump. It took about half an hour before they finally came with the oil to fill it up. But then the repaired cylinder was ALSO leaking very badly. This was it, we went home to the hotel, but of course our 1800hrs taxi was already gone. We tried to get another one, but that's impossible in that part of the town. So we decided: let's go with the motor taxi's. I liked it, at least we rode on a motocycle in China again!
