Goodbye, Speed Bumps!

You might remember a previous entry on our new speed bumps, and the lengths taxi drivers go to to avoid them. Today, on my way into work, I saw a very exciting sight: a road crew going at the speed bumps with pickaxes! Some of the speed bumps have already been completely destroyed. Evidently someone decided that the speed bumps are actually creating more of a road hazard than they were preventing.

Pictures from Graduation

Last Saturday, we held our annual graduation ceremony for everyone who completed a training course at Khanimamba. Like all ceremonies, and all graduations, it was long and a little tedious, but all of the trainees were excited. Here are some pictures from the event.
