An arid place


A main road through Rumbek town.  
We have been in Rumbek, South Sudan for a week.  It is a very arid place. Yes, this is the dry season, but even accounting for that Rumbek and the areas that surround it are very dry.  We have met several people from more developed countries involved in well drilling projects.  Pictured here is one of the main roads through town. There are no paved roads, even the airstrip where we landed when we first arrived is unpaved.
