This is from my vacation in Niger. We went to this nice little village, Boubon, on the Niger River a little north of the capital, Niamey. Our search for wild hippos was fruitless in the high rainy season waters, but it was immesurably enjoyable to just sit in the canoe and watch the women doing laundry and the little boys swimming. We drifted by rice paddies and scare-crows, (meant to keep the hippos out of the gardens), listened to the birds hunting the evening bugs, as the sun set on the day.
