PHOTO MONTAGE

So many pictures, so little time.
Many thanks to the friends I borrowed a few of these pictures from.


does this even need a caption?

"I bless the rains down in Africaaaaa!"

streets of Gulu.

the market, clothing/miscellaneous section.

oh, hello Sudan.

our backyard: pit latrine, papaya tree, clothesline, and burning garbage.

watertower in our yard.

outdoor area where we did our cooking, washing, and congregating.

kids outside out gate = regular occurrence.  why do you think the house was named "the Mzoo?"

the Mzoo!


Paul's mother and I.

because puppies are cute and jackfruit is delicious.

my walk from the Mzoo to my homestay.

These are just a few of my favorite photographs.  I can't convey in pictures how beautiful this country is, but this is the best I can do.  Maybe when I go back next, I'll work on my photography skills?


Though we travel the world over to find the beautiful, we must carry it with us or we find it not.
