Pictures of Keets

I took a trip down to Keetmanshoop recently to help Jay install a server in his lab.  We took a break on Saturday and walked through the location to talk to people.  Here are a few of the pictures I was able to get.

Can you see the meet drying on the wall?  This is how biltong is made- a Namibian beef jerky.A Namibian kitchen.  Here fat cakes are being made and sold to residents.  Fat cakes are like Namibian dougnuts.Another view of a kitchen area, shielded by tin and set away from the house.
A view of a few houses.Two brothers insisted I take their picture.  They also said they would come see Jay to learn about computers on Monday..You can faintly see a dust storm here- one of many that visit residents here each day.
Jay sits with a Meme who has taken in children of AIDS infected mothers who cannot breast feed their babies.  We sat and talked with her for a whileSome of the children of the Meme in the previous picture. In addition to her own 7 kids, she cares for at least 10 more, all funded with a N$10,000 grant she applied for.A Namibian garden.  Fresh greens rationed carefully to last as long as possible.
