(pictured is George the fisherman and brown bear)Today I was blessed with the opportunity to come to Kendu Bay for the internet connect again! It is half-term break for the students at Wikondiek. It's a celebration!
This is perfect because I was rushed last time and there were a few things I wanted to mention :) god loves me.
The first is Papa's shamba (farm). On this glorious plot of land, we've seen flower, chili, mango, pawpaw (papaya), avocado, maize and millet crops! It's great! We've even seen a family of hippos chillin' because the shamba is right on Lake Victoria. The first time I heard the sound they make, I stopped dead in my tracks and looked at Leslie with utter confusion and fear.
Leslie is like our brother. He maintains the shamba and lives in the home across from us! BFF foreverrr haha! okay enough with the teasing, here are some pics:
Pic 1: The shamba is located in a gulf at Victoria Lake. *pretty*
Pic 2: Leslie holding a little goat still so I can pet it
Pic 3: A woman harvesting chillies
Pic 4: Fishermen fishing with mosquito nets... its actually illegal to to this *yikes*
*note: Last time the computer crashed so the post was disorganized. my bad.
the fact you were able to witness hippo's in their natural habitat as oppose to...umm...the zoo..is incredible!!!
