My village! This is the mayo (fulfulde for river) that runs next top my village. It is fairly rocky here and you can see giant rounded boulders on all the hillsides, which are a mix of green and yellow vegetation right now.

The fans got excited, but it wasn't like a game in Brasil. There were no chants except for the "Ole" and only a few people had their body painted or were wearing the team colors. There was however if you can see in this photo a man walking around with and areasol can that he was using as a flame thrower. That was pretty intense and my thoughts were shared by the gendarme (like local police) who made him leave.

At the soccer game. We watched the best team in Cameroon, which happens to be Garoua the big city in my province, play the best team in Zimbabwe. Twas exciting, but severly hot. We attracted a lot of attention from fans, but so did the game as Garoua won.

This is on a bike ride I took with two other volunteers....excuse me trainees cause we are not actual volunteers yet. Yes I know the helmet doesn't fit on my head well, but I still have to wear it! I am not the only one suffering through helmet issues, another volunteer is still waiting for PC to send him a helmet that will fit his head.
