Spring Break

This year we went with a great group from school to the Southwest Province, specifically the village of Bangem. Tom, a co-worker, was a Peace Corps volunteer there about 15 years ago, had talked a lot about it, and wanted to share it with us. I am so glad he did. This was our smoothest trip yet. We went in two cars and our biggest difficulty was a flat tire.

These shots are on the way to Bangem on the first day. While going down the highway we saw an overloaded bus driving with a man clinging on the back. He actually got back into the bus while were driving about 100 kilometers per hour!

The red car is Tom's, passing the bus. The scenery was much different, more lush and mountainous. Lastly, a waterfall we stopped to check out and give our legs a stretch.
