More Pictures from our Home Stay in Cheptebo

On the way to our home stay in Cheptebo we crossed the equator. There were several small shops along the road. As we were taking this picture they all lined up getting ready to sell us something. The merchants can get some what aggressive at times.
This is the local car wash in Kabarnet. It is a low water crossing. They just pull their cars into the shallow water and wash them.
This is the view from a small town called Iten looking down into the Kerio Valley where Cheptabo is located. We went here with Joseph, Sally and the missionaries from Canada. It was Luke's birthday. He was still not feeling very well from his malaria.

Here are the Kids at Iten. The valley is in the background.
This was a water fall that we saw while driving to Iten. It looked awesome in real life. Pictures do not always turn out like you want them to.
This was a typical day driving on the roads. You have to be aware of cars, potholes, people, bicycles and livestock.


This the the Kerio River that runs thru the valley. The water in very brown but it is still very beautiful.

The views are incredible! Please be careful driving, it seems that might be the most dangerous part! Love you, even in Africa, Aunt Jane :)
