Les Rapides, at The Congo River

Les Rapides, at The Congo River with children swimming, a boat and Kinshasha, DRC on the far shore. A new set of photos at the Flickr link!

NPR is running a series of stories this week about the Congo River and just this place. http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=129176374&...

In France, for example, people kiss both cheeks to greet eachother. We "bump cheeks" and do a light forehead bump here in the Congo. Then, a big smile and laugh! Keetoko!

You know what it's like when it's about to rain but hasn't yet? That's what the weather is like in the Congo.

I've uploaded the first set of photos from the Congo. There are street shots, architecture views, shots of TV appearances of rock star software guys, and, of course, bikes! Enjoy...and please let me know what you think via comments. Music, dance, nature to come...
