Street shots - November 2007

As promised here are some shots from around the streets where I am staying.  The whole place has quite a ‘village’ feel to it, which for the moment still enchants me.  I quite like just wandering about and seeing the (very foreign) sights.  One thing I haven’t managed to catch on film yet but have seen a couple times is the little kids leading herds of water buffalo through the streets at sunset.  Whenever I go out at that time with a camera the buggers elude me…

They take their traffic jams seriously here.  I was on a motorcycle taxi supplied by the guesthouse I was staying at, heading back home when we got into the following mess.  I decided to get off and walk and got home about a half hr ahead of the driver, sometimes two legs are better even than two wheels:

How can anything move in that traffic?
