Day 1 - Part 5 - African Time and Uno

It being our first day out in Africa, we weren't aware that we needed to adjust our timing to suit African time. The guys at the Hands Village laughed at our reluctance to go to bed before 10pm. And when we asked them tentatively if they would be able to open the gate to the compound at 5.30am the next morning, they said sure they'd waking up that time anyway. It would seem African time starts at dawn so that much of the work can be done before the heat of the day and then people settle down to sleep between 8-9pm.



Ignoring all this we embarked on yet another challenging part of our trip - who could survive Jump In Uno? My oh my how competitive some people are!!!
