For a good six months, all we've heard about is the "steam boat" that will come. The river has been dried up all summer, and has recently returned. Everyone kept saying when the water was deep enough, the boat would come. And come it did. Right in our village, this boat comes and brings all sorts of fruits and veggies...coconuts and watermelons included! We get just as excited as the Africans when it comes. Sometimes it even blows its horn around 4:00 AM and wakes you up, but that's ok! We took a tour the first time we saw it, and we realized we never want to ride this thing. It's cheaper to take a Carribean cruise for a week than to stay in the first class cabin - which isn't so first class! We also got to "drive" the boat. They let you do anything if you're white!
