We had a bit of time on Sunday for a walk around our neighborhood. What started as a stroll became quite a trek into the woods in search of an elusive village we were hoping to find in the distance.
Where we are staying is apparently the city with a population of around 100,000. I would have guessed we were in a tiny village. Our hotel is on a paved road, and while we were walking Shari and I took advantage of the fact that Christian was distracted on the phone to redirect our meandering onto the far more interesting mud roads. My brain is too tired to write full sentences now, so I will instead list the interesting sights:
I. Beautifully colored, if extremely worn facades
II. Goats, goats and more goats
III. A construction man roasting the rat he killed that morning ( He was happy I photographed it, so that ‘the world could see his rat’)
IV. Shari, desperate for vegetables, chewing on monkey cane
V. Eric, not wanting to dirty his trousers, exposing his ridiculous socks and shoes
VI. Beautiful wooden church, built with rough-hewn wood
VII. A public school, aged as a ruin, only 30 years old
VIII. Shari doing math in said public school
IX. Wonderful Sunset
