In the countryside, on the way to the giraffes, we saw these granaries that are raised above ground and protected from animals with wooden fences.
These dromedaries had giraffe envy, eating out of trees and all that.
In a village, the bare baobab tree waits for the rainy season to bloom. In the meantime, he's happy to be decorated with some ears of maize.
Obviously people in villages don't have running water, and so they go the well to fetch water. I will post movies of this when I have a better connection.
Kids don't have to worry about getting toys from China, instead, they make their own with recycled garbage.
The area is populated by two ethnic groups, the Haoussa (sedentary farmers) and the Peul (animal husbands - what else do you call people who practice animal husbandry???). These are Peul cattle.
