Gambian Adventure: Enough
http://dollinafrica.blogspot.com/2010/07/enough.html
Thursday, July 1, 2010. Most days I feel like the women of MSC are going to do great when I'm gone, they'll continue on and have great success. Other days I realize there is still so much to teach them and I'll never fit it all in the time I have left. I fear that I didn't take the opportunities given to me to share Jesus with them. I think what if I'm the only way they will ever know and I didn't do enough? I hope and pray that God used me on some way that I have no understanding of. I LOVE YOU ALL!

Monday, August 2, 2010. I'm so proud of the women and the work they have done over the last 2 years. I will miss them terribly.

Gambian Adventure: May 2010
http://dollinafrica.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
Wednesday, May 19, 2010. Tuesday, May 11, 2010. Nothing Is Ever Free. 8221;, “yes”, I said, “well then today it is free”, he said. I couldn’t argue with that. So like I said just when you think there are still things for free you get knocked down a bit and end up paying twice for the next thing. I still appreciate the gesture of the man at the auto shop but unfortunately the action of the attendants has put a damper on my outlook. Saturday, May 8, 2010. Inspecting the first one.

Gambian Adventure: Baobab Powder for Drinking
http://dollinafrica.blogspot.com/2010/07/baobab-powder-for-drinking.html
Thursday, July 8, 2010. Baobab Powder for Drinking. These first two pictures are from the Internet as surprisingly I don't have good pictures on my computer of the tree or the inside of the fruit. The inside of the fruit is typically sold in the markets here from rice bags and you buy it by the can. Locally the people will dissolve the fruit in water and then remove the red fibers and seeds from the drink, add sugar and sometimes banana essence and then enjoy this refreshing drink.

Gambian Adventure: July 2010
http://dollinafrica.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Thursday, July 22, 2010. Pictures from everyday life. I would love to have more candid shots of life here but unfortunately as soon as I pull out my camera I get swarmed and the kids want to pose and make funny faces. I need a telephoto lens so I can hide and get better shots :) but these will have to do for now. Alieu and Nyima like to climb the wall on the front of my porch. He is just the cutest. When I say Alieu he says Auntie Serray and I just love it. Pabi, Mauttie, Senny, Yankuba, Mola and Alieu.

Wednesday, June 30, 2010. Ok so I know it's been a long time since I've posted but I have been busy so I will post as soon as I can. Wednesday, June 16, 2010. Wednesday, June 9, 2010. Snow, Football and Michael Jackson. Abajie is making it snow! Mariama is creating a blizzard for Fatou. A little while later Abajie came up to me and asked me where the snow was. I looked around and realized there wasn't a bit of it left on the ground. I guess it was just too hot :). Pirang is the yellow team. We got there ...
