We arrived in Njinikom early Sunday evening after a very long but good journey. The 8 hour ride from the congested hot city of Douala into the cool mountainous region of the Boyo division is an eye opening drive. A joyful arrival was complete with waves, warm hugs and a delicious meal. We are staying in lodging built by docs from Holland, aptly named the Holland house. The pastural scene is the view we wake up to. Life is very good and we are excited to get to work.

Sunday walk. Love the colors.

Good Morning Njinikom. Farm at St. Martin de Porres Mission Hospital.
Mountains in the near distance. It is the end month of the dry season. The fog like atmosphere is caused by the blowing Saharan sands.
