PK

yep.  the name of the village I visited last Saturday is PK.  it was a pretty sweet visit though... you drive out to the middle of nowhere on the highway, take a left, cross over the mountain, and then it just appears.  i was welcomed, per usual, with a bunch of singing and dancing and decided to get a little photo happy.  enjoy!  (i apologize for the organization of the pictures on here... the formatting is being weird and i dont feel like taking the time to fix it)

so. many. children.  the kid to adult ratio is ridiculous

the singing begins

and continues...

then, of course, the dancing starts

i wish you could see their faces
when they look at hte pictures after

these girls were super cute dancing together

                                              

these boys were all about the fast feet

these boys were standing like this for a long time;
male friend physical touch is much more accepted here

                                                     

making lunch... this is how they smash up the yams

i think i laughed out loud when they brought out the cokes.

walking around the village.
two people to a bike is pretty common

i thought this raised garden was pretty cool

i really liked the outfits on these kids

after seeing their picture.
apparently mesh-tank kid is not  impressed

aaand the real reason i was there.
shea butter.  super good for your skin.
used here in cooking as well.

                                              

                                                         watching the transformation process.
                                                         somehow this turns out white
