The last two sections are probably only of interest to people who went on the trip... and as usual you can run your cursor over the image to see the explanatory title info.
Commerce section (next 24): Each little town had their own butcher shop, which seemed to operate on the premise that once some meat was available, it would be snapped up quickly, so the meat of the day would just sit out on a hook until it was all gone. If you stopped your vehicle anywhere near the omnipresent roadside vendors, they would run over and try to sell you whatever they had, whether you wanted any or not! But usually you stopped at that spot to get what they were offering, so it worked out. The number of brightly painted buildings was amazing...
Random photos section (next 9): There were little brick kilns everywhere... their primary building material in most of the small villages. The WC sign was a lot funnier than the actual WCs...
People section (last 16): Just shots of people we saw along the road, or at various villages. The last two shots at bottom right are among my favorites of the entire trip.
Showers were of varying degrees of modern, from the tub of water and hand valve at Kibale to huge stone showers at Lewa and Wilderness House. Macushla was kind of in the middle.. good water but nowhere to place the shower head.
