Random Juba Information

The compound had a set schedule each day, based around when the generators would be running if city power was off.
9 - start of work
10:30 - tea time
11 - back to work
12:30 - lunch
2 - back to work
5 - finish work and head home
7 - eat supper
9 - go to bed ("missionary midnight")

And, since I wasn't able to take any pictures while touring around Juba, these are some of the common (and not so common) sights:

• 2 men and a goat on a boda (motorcycle taxi)
• piles of garbage everywhere - in the market, on street corners, etc.
• GOSS yellow licence plates - don't hit them!!!
• every other vehicle is an NGO SUV
• vehicle's with "no-gun" decals (like no smoking signs, but with an AK-47 instead of a cigarette)
• ducks swimming in a pothole
• a bridge over a creek with a large hole in the middle ... a hole going the whole way through the concrete, so only the rebar was left
• no street signs, traffic lights, or traffic signs
• police directing traffic but just making a worse traffic jam
• men walking goats (on leashes!)
• women carrying all sorts of things on their heads
• tukels (round mud huts with thatched roofs)
• huge snails
• cars driving with hazard lights flashing - it means they are going straight through an intersection, not turning
• forehead scars - the Nuer and Dinka cut their foreheads when they become adults
