On the back of a motorcycle...

A lighter view of my time here.

Here are some of the more impressive things I've seen on the backs of motorcycles:
- a goat
- a full sized ladder, held by a man eating a corn cob
- a coffin
- 8 twin-sized foam mattresses
- a meat locker
- a meter-tall stack of wood
- a car-sized windshield
- a couch and 2 chairs
- 2 bicycles

And on top of a matatu (a 12-person van):
- 30 chickens, not in cages, strapped to the top with some rope.

Kenya, I am duly impressed.


And some pictures:

 In Kaptagat forest with "Big Daddy" - a 1000 year old tree

 Kenyan lunch: Chapati, sikuma wiki (kale), ndengu (mung beans), some soup, and a banana.  This cost me 80 Ksh, which is less than $1 USD.

 Some lovely Samboro women from near Maralal, Kenya.  They laughed when I showed them their picture.

The front of the hospital.

 Jon and I at Kruger Farms - a large farm that has a conserved area where 9 to 12 giraffes live.

Twiga! (giraffe, in Kiswahili).
