As we approach our home, the neighbors have some different looking chickens running around. (Many people keep chickens in their yards all over town). This "fuzz ball" was just different and didn't mind posing for a shot.
There is a little compound of houses built largely of scrap lumber emerging about a block from us. It has been interesting watching the construction in slow motion (over a 6 months period of time). The picture below shows the huge amount of clothes that need to be dried from the people who live in this compound. Of course, the houses are just filled with children. The almost daily rain provides a real challenge to ever get this amount of wash dry.
And finally arriving back at the apartment, the picture below shows our compound, the flowers and "the boss". The blue tank is the rain water supply. because of a number of interruptions lately in city water supply, this has been a real life saver
The bottom line is that life here is a kaleidoscope of sites, sounds and just plain different things.

This is a little late, but the communication problem, I have been there and done that! It is good that God made us so we can laugh at ourselves. You probably will never know what "XXX" meant! However, we know it wasn't eggs!

Great pictures, That young lad was serious about doing a good job shining your shoe.
The chicken is interesting. It must not be afraid of people. Are they owned by someone or strays ?
Seeing the clothes on the line makes me realize why the people you photograph always appear neat and clean. Interesting. Don
Looks like Mary Jane is holding some rolls from the bakery. Isn't that your Sunday morning ritual too? They look pretty yummy!

Hi, your selection of the word, 'kaleidoscope' is neat, I wish you could capture it thus. pb
