Big city living...

Ok...after a couple of tiresome weeks wrapping things up in Niaguis, and some teary goodbyes, we've finally made it to Dakar - but not before sharing my favorite dish (ceebu yap) for the last time with some friends at the clinic.

Serving up my favorite dish...

Actually we arrived in DakarThursday evening...to no electricity or water. Seems the big city has way more outages than Niaguis!

Plans this week include:

• Sleep, sleep and hopefully more sleep - I not only need to work off a huge sleep debt, but I'd like to bank a few hours for our trip to Europe!
  
• Updating the Mission on Dispensaire business
• Making the necessary arrangements for our minous to fly home and seeing them on their way...sniff
• Planning what we'd like to see/do in Europe
• Eating a tonne of veggies we weren't able to get in the Casamance
• Showing Fanta around Dakar - she's never left Niaguis/Ziguinchor so we've invited her to spend a couple of days with us
• Dining at least twice at what has to be the best Indian restaurant in all of Africa and
• Buying any last minute souvenirs for friends and family

Should be a good week...
