2nd day in Jamaica: Spouse hit a pothole with the rental car. Instant flat. While we're putting on the donut, we see at least 5 more cars get instant flats in the same way. I'm jacking up the car in my nice funeral dress, fortunately a couple different guys stopped to help. We drive a little ways with the donut, get lost, we hit another pothole, the donut is destroyed. A taxi driver stops, takes us to a tire shop nearby, we buy a new used tire, go back, put the replacement tire on, make it to the funeral only an hour and a half late. Since the funeral lasts about 4 hours, this is fine.

In response to this post@SallyStrange oh boy, you had the Complete Experience! I’m sure there was a lot of cursing at the time but it makes a good story. 😅
@impermanen_ totally epic! And the knock-on effects, like us getting a whole new set of tires on the car, were all good.
