More Brave Visitors Arrive in Thies

DeeAnn and Connie Pretending to be Cooking -


Marie Cecile Actually Cooking





DeeAnn (my sister) and Edd left the snowy Pacific Northwest and landed in 100+ degree Dakar heat. Ask them about their experiences in Dakar. They took a 2.5 hour taxi to Thies and spent the day with us. We started at Masa Masa (picture below) where we had a delicious French meal and Taylor was treated to a crepe (crep in french) with ice cream, chocolate and whipped cream.














Edd showing Ahmed Fad how to fix the Motorcycle

Edd showed up at just the right time help Tim. I'm not sure who is in charge here? The one unsolvable problem is NO GAS, for 3 days. Tim has gone to the Gas Station multiple times and no gas. Last night on our way home from the Les Delicious, I noticed about 40 guys with bottles standing in a line at the pumps. I can't wait to tell Tim. DeeAnn and Edd will be returning in a couple of weeks after Gambia and maybe Mali. DeeAnn is going to help set up a lab at the hospital and Edd is going to wait in line for gas with Ahmed Fad.

They must have REALLY big pharmacists in Senegal. That thing looks like Goliath's mortar and pestle!
