Under the Burkinabe Sun: March 2009
http://jabarbour.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html
Under the Burkinabe Sun. There was an error in this gadget. 12 Hours, 100Km (60 miles), and Other Chose. I use 'chose' as the title because that means things. Just another part of my combination of French, English and PC slang which I realize makes understanding me sometimes rather complicated. My apologies. Just ask me to clarify. As for photos, I have augmented somewhat so here is the link: http:/ picasaweb.google.com/jabarbour/Guinea. Site, Plows and Windowless Bush Taxis. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Kate in Guinea: It's beautiful here
http://kateinguinea.blogspot.com/2008/12/its-beautiful-here.html
Monday, December 8, 2008. This may be my last entry for a while. Tomorrow we leave for our homestays in another city. We'll train in language, technical, and cross-cultural areas. We're very excited.
