See All The Animals

The cows at left are in the outskirts of the city walking on the street right along with traffic. All the rest were in the country where we visited villages for our water project (see following post).(I have more animals to post but will stop here for now because of the late hour and trouble I'm having with the uploading.)








When in the country, the driver stopped and Shekar got out to take these pix for me. I told him that we had grandchildren who wanted to see the animals. We must have seen hundreds of cows and goats throughout the day. (For some reason one of the pic uploaded twice. Having trouble with this blog today.)
































































After snapping the farm types above, I said, "Now it would be icing on the cake to see some monkeys." Right about then, we reached a railroad crossing and were held up for 15 to 20 minutes. I happened to look over to our left and there was a monkey who found a man with bananas on the side of the road and grabbed one, peeled and ate it, but we missed that picture. There was a gully between us which kept us from getting very close but these were fairly large and we liked having some space. The yellow fence is part of the railway area--not a zoo.




























This is the same picture as above and I can't find a way to remove it.

Very cool...Gage and Bella were so excited to see those pictures. Gage thought those white cows were goats, too, at first. They especially liked the monkeys. And Gage thought the water buffalo's bottom was funny.

We just watched the lion king so the monkeys and water buffalo were of great interest to Callie. We finally got our internet up so we will try skype again tomorrow.
