Loitokitok Photos

Here are various photos from our recent trip to Loitokitok! It was a very special and spectacular trip.
The building and internal pictures are photos of the girl's boarding school at DEB primary school. This building was the impetus for our human rights project, and the reason we were in Loitokitok. The dorm houses many young women who are escaping early/forced marriages or other human rights issues. As you can see, the dorms are somewhat rundown and there aren't many amenities or comforts in them. The focus of our interviews was to determine what, if any, type of human rights intervention might be appropriate. We are studying and analyzing this at the moment, being cognizant of the various ethical issues involved, and working towards an end result (of which the outcome is as of yet unclear).
Next, you will see the teacher's breakroom at the DEB Primary School. I loved this room due to the beautiful turquoise colour.
The resort-like photo is Kibo Slopes, were we stayed the first few nights.
Next is a soccer action shot from our intense game: Dr. Mganga vs. Super Mugakas!
The tree photos are 1) from our hike to the Tanzanian border and 2) an example of the unique trees around here.
Next, my favorite photo: the donkey cart which daily transported water around Loitokitok. The entrepreneurs with the (much too) cute donkey are selling the water to local proprietors.
After the donkey photo is a second common animal in Loitokitok - goats. They are all over the place, mainly cleaning things up by eating various items around town. :-)
At the very bottom, you can see our intrepid van, which transports us all over, from our internships to our excursions to Loitokitok and soon Maasai Mara for a safari. :-)
