Cistern


Cistern

This part of Kenya (central, around Mount Kenya) didn't seem to have a problem with water (though i seemed to be there during the rainy season) but in some places, especially the mountainous areas, they have cisterns to collect rain water.

As far as I could tell this was not collecting rain water but i was told that it was used for processing the coffee beans (pretty inefficiently too, details in another picture).
