Greetings from Senegal!
Greetings from Senegal! I wanted to let you all know that we are leaving in a few hours for Praia on Cape Verde and will return Sunday night. Unfortunately, I will have limited, if any, Internet access while we are there, so chances are good that you won't see any posts until we return.
I sincerely apologize for the infrequency of posts to this point in our adventure, but Internet access even in Dakar is not reliable and often very, very slow. AND our family computer happens to be in my 21 year old brother Bachir's room...between him and our 2 teenage sisters, it's difficult to get a turn online!
I have many more photos to share and spent several hours last night and today attempting to upload a few but to no avail. The connection is not cooperating with me, although I did manage to get one new photo on the site...me with a beautiful little girl from a Peul village we visited yesterday, near Lac Rose or Pink Lake.
FYI, there is a 4 hour difference in Senegal and a 3 hour difference on Cape Verde, for anyone who might be interested.
One last thing... When you are leaving a post or comment, please follow the entry with your name. Often, only an email address is indicated and I am unsure of who is writing to us. Thanks!
We hope all is well in Michigan! Please keep us in your thoughts and prayers as we embark on this next portion of our journey... We're off to Cape Verde!

Hello Team,
This is my second post and I believe was one that got accidentally deleted, so I'll start fresh and wish you all well. One of the earlier posts spoke of the weather there, well just to give you a touch of home, again winter storms here with ice and snow, so enjoy!!! I'm impressed with the beautiful pictures and can't wait to see and hear more of your experiences. I miss my SISter Connie and just know you're all having the experience of a lifetime. Enjoy the journey!!! Your in my thoughts and prayers daily. My best to all! Connie LOL!!!
