The Craziness of Life

One day we were going to go to L-Town (the nighboring city). We were going to rent vans. They were going to pick us up at 8:30. This is a picture of us waiting by the road, at 10am...
At 11:30, one of the two vans showed up. But we sent him away, because it was too late to go to L-town. We called Tempos to pick us up so we could go to a nearby village. At 11:45 the first van returned with a 2nd van. Both driving like crazy people and skidding to a stop in front of us. The tempo's also arrived. We dismissed the ticked off van drivers and got in the tempos.

At the village we walked around and talked to the Father and also got a tour of the town...
That's cow poop patties drying in the sun...

It was so nice to be in the country away from the noise and polution. We saw green grass! On the way to the village we had a picnic under a tree. And a lot of people stopped to catch a glimpse of the white people. A large crowd gathered to watch us eat lunch. It probably didn't help that the guys were all climing the tree like crazy men.

When we arrived in the village, we discovered that we are still a very popular attraction...as you can see from all the children following us...
