Christmas Day at Makanga Camp

Here it is, our Christmas at Makanga Camp with the neighbors! Bryan and I bought 6 chickens and 2 whole crates of soft drinks (20 glass bottles in each. This is Christoper cutting up all the chickens... he is quite the cook!


Lonely making some small donout like snacks for desert.



The girls winnowing the rice.



David brought over some beens to be cooked, so I too cooked something!


The place we chose to dine together was behind the houses in the woods. The families wanted a change of scenery. So they found a clearing and layed out a very big tarp.


The food arrived in bowls on girls heads. We had rice, chicken, beans, mustared greens, boilded eggs and of course a drink and snack!


Bryan keeping guard of food. We were out in the baboons territory after all.
