My Dingo is sick

Today had all the makings of a great day. However one little light ruined it. What kind of light could have possibly done that....a check engine light. Our car is a Mitsubishi Dingo.  Sadly today the Dingo is not doing so well, it's sick. So instead of venturing out for some vacation information and lunch at a sushi go round restaurant we ventured into the outskirts of Okinawa to a mechanic. We got there after making a least 5 u-turns, went on a test drive and were told that it would take a couple days to fix.  Alas once again thwarted by bad luck, but hey at least no one got hurt today. 
I'm taking the car in tomorrow while Gabi's at school. I suppose the next few days we will be staying close to home. Except for Wednesday, because Gabi has a haircut appointment on another base, so we will be discovering the joys of taking the bus. I'm sure that will be an adventure worth writing about.
