More pictures around the house

My apartment is on the top right.

My laundry being done in a washtub
(by Janet, who is hidden behind the clothes).

The two swallows who sit on my windowsill
between flights full of acrobat stunts.

Bougainvillea

This bougainvillea takes up the entire fence
at the BMW dealership in Lilongwe.

More pictures from work

The trees in the background are almost done
blooming. They have been beautiful.


I walk past this tree every morning. The blooms aren't too showy,
but they smell just like honeysuckle.

This is the bougainvillea in a pot just outside my office. I'm hoping
to catch it when it turns purple.

I took this picture at the hotel, but we have them on the
station, too. They are a big, tall tree with this
orange flower right in the top.

Beautiful view from the front porch

At the office

ICRAF is located at Chitedze Agricultural Research Station

surrounded by research plots and mango trees

Covered tile walks link the offices


The very first time I've had an office for myself.

It seems that hotels and lodges all grow white roses.
