I know I went a little heavy on the scenery pics but everything was so
beautiful that I could hardly help myself. I kept wondering if the Kenyans realized how beautiful their landscape is.
 |
| Cows (maybe not beautiful but quintessential Kapsowar) |
 |
| The walk to Ednah's (Christina's house-helper and friend). She hosted us for dinner one evening. |
 |
| A closer view of the same farm. See the mama with the baby on her back? |
 |
| Nina and Vi with the beautiful scenery |
 |
| Ednah and family |
 |
| Ednah's kitchen. This is her oven/stove. She has to rebuild it every 5-7 days. Her home is made from mud and cow dung. The manure helps to make it solid and waterproof. |
 |
| Ednah's dairy cow |
 |
| Vi milking the cow |
 |
| Beautiful Kapsowar scenery |
 |
| Boys taking their animals to graze |
 |
| I couldn't take enough photos of the patchwork hillsides |
 |
| Nina and Vi on our walk down to the river |
 |
| Vi and I in front of the river |
 |
| Nina and Vi picnicking by the river |
 |
| Panning for gold |
 |
| More cows |
 |
| Vi asked if the cows had different sized legs to be able to graze on the hills. |
 |
| The locals thought it was entertaining to watch the "mzungu" (white folks) climb the hill |
 |
| So beautiful |
 |
| Mowing with a "panga" (machete) |

Awesome gallery. I am from the town. I was thinking of developing a website that could help visitors on anything pertaining the area and also to be able to make your recommendations accessible to the people at large, in the area. I will appreciate your feedback.
Those photos are evoking wanderlust in me. Kenya is a beautiful country.
