Kibuye market with Eddie and Ken

It has been a while since getting back from kenya now but i'm still very excited about my findings out there... unfortunately i wasn't able to keep on blogging whilst away due to the lack of internet signal where we'd been staying however this didn't slow down our explorations...

i think i left it at Kisumu, the night before going to one of Kenya's largest markets. The Kibuye Market is a huge outdoor market selling everything from second hand clothes, furniture, food, to a garage where a chorus of men banging about tools and metal are found. It is described as 'animated' and most certainly was continuing over land stretching for a few kilometers! Our friend Ken, who lives in Kisumu, directed us around the market, we stumbled across this lady who was using gourds functionally to scoop up maize flour and unga to sell to the local market goers, she showed us how she decorates them too, this is what i look so happy about holding!

i've made a video of the day too... i'll get it uploaded soon after i've managed to get my head round imovie!
