City life

Tuesday night we went for a walk and enjoyed the many scenes that have become so familiar to us...

...the street markets...


...bicycles balancing heavy loads...
(yes, that's a refrig-erator!)










...people balancing heavy loads...

















...bare-bunned children playing on the sidewalk...



...the blatant dichotomy of farm and city life, right there on the street corner...

...all kinds of people, going about their daily lives. Being a lover of nature and wide open spaces, I never thought I'd say this, but there's something kind of peaceful about walking through the city in the evenings. Sun shining, breeze blowing, life everywhere. Just peaceful. Well...until Susanna started throwing up...then our relaxing walk was over! So it goes! But it is good to be back.
