New Year's day - a few more photos





This last entry about New Year's is just to include a few more photos of the homestead and life thereon.

First are photos of two of the dwellings -- the round thatched dwelling is a typical Swazi home but the other type is also common on homesteads. The third photo is of some of the local girls washing lunch dishes. As you can see, there's no running water and the job has to be done outside. Finally, there's a pic of the latrine, which of course I utilized. Aside from the interesting wattle and daub construction, it's the same as any latrine in Alaska (although here there's no need for a styrofoam seat).
