Just Breath even if smoggy


Africa continues to unfold tragedy and beauty. We are very very lucky to have food and safe homes. Saw a baby in raw sewage and trash today. People walking every where as this tiny child was eating something she found in that very disgusting stuff. William said it wasnt safe to get out of the car, nothing to be done he said. It is everywhere people are hungry, homeless, orphaned, drinking bad water. The kids made paintings today. Great artists. They sang songs about being HIV orphans and I held back the tears till I got home to my room. I am ready to get out of Africa for a bit it will take awhile to process all of this. Nairobi they say will be dagerous during these elections so I am happy to be getting out. Rwanda was facinating I have some great photos of twin gorillas playing in the vines.
