Training in Cameroon

Good morning/good afternoon,
I arrived at my final destination, just getting settled at the Compound. Walked in the kitchen and a 6 inch lizard went running by me. OK then....
The train trip, though long, hot, noisy, and jostling, was worth it for the experience of the sights and sounds. I woke up at 6 am to look out at a grey, misty, African landscape, like a picture in National Geographic. Sweet.
These are some pictures from the last 2 days.

The first morning in Yaounde, looking out from my bedroom at the Shiloh.

The view from the upper veranda of the Shiloh, looking out over Yaounde.

The Shiloh--I stayed here my first night in Yaounde

A small village by the train tracks, with a mom and her kids waving at the train as it goes by.

The little boys come from their village to the train when it stops to collect empty water bottles. They reuse them to store water, honey, gas. These guys were total hams, dancing and hopping around.

More later....
