On Tuesday we took a ride to an area we had not been in Kisumu.
We soon found ourselves in sugar cane country.
At one time there was a great sugar industry here
but it has had problems in more recent times.
Sugar cane fields
On the north side of the road was a "mountain" range
going directly east and west.
Most of the sugar cane fields were on both sides of the road
and on the left went to the mountain which was
quite a distance!!
The sign of one of the sugar companies.
Along the way to the south of the road was a
fish hatchery with several ponds.
More sugar cane.
Fields to the mountains.
Beautiful country side!!
Look closely and you see the tops of several huts
hidden among the plants.

Everything is so green.
We have had a lot of evening rain to green everything!!
The post office in Miwani.
There is a sugar factory here and several offices
but we asked a man here and he said the factory
isn't working now.
(Now did he mean right now -
that it was closed for the day or -
that it is closed because of no business)
Another view of the beautiful area.
In some areas there was still a lot of water on the
road and also along the sides of the roads.
This bird was taking advantage of the water.
Water on the road.
Another large bundle!!
