These are some of the sights you see a long the street as you walk along. This man was having a nap. It's common for them to lay down where ever they are. Under the flyover...Along the street...In their auto along side of the road. At night you see them laying on the street... Not just one....but a whole family...This is there home.
These are our street friends. As we walk to the church we meet these people and look forward to seeing them and hearing a friendly hello. This man sells coconut for his living. Mostly people just drink the juice of the green ones. We pass him every day because he is near the church.

This is our shoe repairman and this is his shop. He fixed Elder K.'s shoe and we've been his good friend ever since. His business is just a few steps from the coconut man and a bit closer to the church.


This man waved and smiled when he figured out I was taking his picture. THey love their picture taken and if possible I always take a copy to them because it makes them so happy.
Another common site on the street. As we keep walking down this street we come to the coconut man and then the shoe man and then the church. All on the right side of the road.
On the left is a wall they use to relieve themselves.....Sometimes you will see 6-8 men lined up doing their thing.....I wonder what the women do? They never use the wall......Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!!!




Not just people take a break. We get a kick out of the animals taking a break.



This man and his family have an ironing business. Here he is doing his work There are lots of these little places. One on every street. This is the same little ironing shop. We live up this street, turn left and then turn right....So not far from here.
