More Pictures of the life with the Maasi

Here are a couple more pictures of the Maasi I thought you'll might enjoy.


Here is a Maasi house. It is essentially a collection of sticks with mud stuck between them and roof made out of some type of foliage. I haven't figured out how they stand up, but they design must work well because I have seen many similar houses.

yummy. This is how the goat meat was cooked at the Maasi cattle market. It was common to see large pieces of meat hanging from little stands like this one. There was a woman who was hacking up goat intestines with a machete, but she didn't want me to take her picture so this picture is the best I could do to gross out all you vegetarians. While I was at the cattle market we actually ate some goat leg.

A Maasi man on a cellphone. Karleen actually took this picture, but I liked it so much I asked her if I could post it on my blog. It is the merging of two cultures and really shows what the Maasi are going through. The Maasi are generally resistant to change but they are willing to adapt to certain things that make life easier, such as cell phones.
