Okada Wars

And yes, in the last pic, that is a baby strapped to his mom's back, riding down the road on an okada.....

Would YOU ever ride an okada?!??

    Okay, I would so love to say that I take that baby on okada and raise you a baby on okada + goat. But, sadly, that didn't happen today. Did get chased by *ENORMOUS CROWD* of singing children, who actually scared me. Local man threw rocks at them, until I yelled at him to stop, at which point he told me he was "protecting" me from the children. Kano is a trip.

    p.s., Incidentally, the children incident was in the old city, where everyone told me I wasn't supposed to go with interviewers. Men were absolutely lovely to me.
