A Kenyan, a Zimbabwean, and an Ethiopian Walk into a Bar

There are four of us here in Rumbek.  It is easy to recognize me.  I'm the white guy.  The rest of the team includes our Kenyan logistician, a Zimbabwean nurse, and an Ethiopian nutritional nurse specialist.  We sat at the small bar in Rumbek sipping on Tusker beer.  It was cold and good.  The meal that we just had was roast lamb, some sort of beef, and pieces of chicken grilled over an open fire.  There was also rice, and some sort of local tuber.  We can't complain about the food, at least not yet.  It sounds like the meat in Gogrial is primarily goat.  I should have thought to pack some of Lynch's famous Butt Rub spice mix.  There are very few vegetables available.  Dominic tried to buy some spinach seeds, but was not successful.  He would like to start a small garden for some greens.
