Ok - I'll try to post some pictures

Views to the Blue Nile Gorge



Mud / Stick Hut - many people live in these throughout the country - its the most common homes.  This is more of a shack - they sides are typically more "mud"
 View near the gorge
 Blue Nile Gorge and the bridge - Craig and I



 More traditional huts

Our traditional lunch in a little village
 Craig eating the lunch
 view from lunch - see how the donkey's do a LOT of the work - sometimes the loads are on people.  These are pretty SMALL loads
 Random view from teh van window - to show the farm land
