A peek into Africa





Okay so i know its been a while since my last post, but im starting to catch up now. So here are some more pictures from Africa. Chris isnt in any of these but i really felt these pictures just jumped out at me and i wanted to share them with you. The 1st is a handful of the villages children gathering to watch the marines band play for them. They are so cute! The 2nd is a women walking with her baby wrapped in this beautifully brigth yellow fabric. The 3rd is i a bunch of marines with i believe Djibouti Soilders After a game of soccer. The 4th is a picture of a house built out of i think its clay and stone. There were another picture that showed many more houses like this one but i couldn't get it downloaded for some weird reason. The last one is of a young girl showing off her tattoo's. It amazing to be able to see how other people live and what there culture is like. Chris did say it kind of reminds him a bit like Mexico ( the poor area's that is). Ill try to get more pictures up soon.
