Images of Africa

At night just as lively as during the day.Contrast between the more well off elegantly dressed dancing away at a party while others in scruffy clothes are still walking around trying to sell their products before the next day.
There is barely any light on the streets. People literally sleeping on the streets. 5 year olds carrying big buckets of water or fruits to sell on their heads all day.

At the bus station 3 hours early (but the bus left 4 hours after I arrived. Had nothing to do anyway and wanted to be sure to definitely get on this only bus today. Nice breeze,TV and not bothered by anyone.
From a distance there is a goat being burnt and others waiting for their fate as well.

Images of Africa: kids running after tyres with a stick, people walking miles in the bush just to get a bucket of water, houses made of thatch and mud.

Havn't seen any rubbish bins yet, both on the streets and in the hotels. The rubbish is dumped everywhere on street.
There is lots of reference to God on street and seems that everyone admires USA
