We go to church in the Kakata branch, 43 miles from Monrovia. Due to bad roads the trip takes us 1 hour and 45 minutes each way. The tedium of the trip is broken up by the wonderful sights we see as we travel. Here are a few examples:
 |
| Going to church |
 |
| Sunday afternoon nap |
 |
| This man is carrying buckets of latex that has been tapped from the rubber trees on the Firestone Plantation. |
 |
| Rice Paddy |
 |
| The road to church |
 |
| Home sweet home |
 |
| This formation is recent. These trees grew fast in the rainy season and leaned over the road, forming a natural arch. |
 |
| The watering hole. Children play and swim while their mothers do laundry and collect water for their daily use. |
 |
We followed this man for miles over horrible roads and he never lost his footing. |
 |
| You never know what you will see around the next corner. |
Aliyah likes the church dresses. Michael wants to ride on the back of the van from now on. I think it's a great idea!
