Chessells in Africa

More new experiences today!
This morning we went for a walk outside the compound, through the jungle(which is very lush), along walking tracks to a village.  People everywhere want to shake hands.  The children come running out of their Tukuls(thatched roof homes) waving at us and yelling "kwaja"(white people).  Keith was happy to do the high-five thing with them-even the children want to shake your hand.  Truly fascinating walking in & out of different family areas seeing them cooking, gardening and playing.
Tonight we went into Yei for a roast goat dinner at the Presbyterian compound. We had 20 people including the hospital staff and the American team who are here at present. A beautiful area on the Yei River.  Driving home @ 7pm was crazy-just as busy as during the day, motorbikes, people, cars, music blaring, chn playing.  The roads seem even worse at night.
