We got up early this Saturday morning and went out to the river. We got to row down quite a ways and then walk to the bridge where we had jumped off last time I was here when the water was high.
We found water lilies along the way collected a few to decorate our canoe...
...and make glasses out of the stems.
On our way back down the river we stopped at the sand bar, got out and looked at the cattle. The cattle are brought down from Chad by herdsmen who make their living selling cattle as they travel the hundreds of miles. When they've sold them all off, they go back to Chad and get more - and start the long journey over again.
It was a beautiful morning on the river - so peaceful and quiet away from all the noise of the town.
