Here are some photos of the sky before it rained. And the inside of my house. And a giant mutant mango. That is my little laptop sitting under it. I am in Conakry now to pick Mary up from the airport. The trip was very smooth and fast. I road the whole way with a really nice guy from the military.
I also found a couple of letters in my mailbox and there are several volunteers here, so I am trying to decide whether to go see The Vagina Monologues in French with them or to stay at the house and do nothing…
