HERE AND THERE AND OUT AND ABOUT

May  2013

On our driving around town or from here to there

we keep a camera handy for whatever we may see.

These are what we see here and there and

out and about.

 Much of the road work is done by manual labor

as seen here.

 This may be hard for you to see but I can see it in my mind also.

Matatus are a main means of transportation  here.

When people travel they take with them what they

need to transport and the matatu drivers

mount the items inside and on top of the vehicle.

Here a whole set of furniture for a sitting room is loaded on top.

 Cabbages are taken to market to be sold in the dukas.

 As I said matatus are for transportation AND

for carrying whatever you need to take with you.

This is a good way to keep the package on top!!

 Piki pikis are also an important mode of transportation.

And anything can be carried on one.

This woman is holding a small baby on her lap on the 

piki piki. Perfect balance!!

 One day at the property owned by the church here

in Kisumu wwe checked out a hole into the ground

that was probably used as a  septic tank.

It needs a cover so someone doesn't walk into it!!

 Someone is getting a new mattress....

 Road work along the way.

Note the plant marking the area to avoid.

 Another plant marking another area in repair.

Wouldn't you like to see great cultural ways in 

another country?

Put in your mission papers!!!!!

We love seeing new things!!!

You will also!!
