Banjul

The other day I gave Modou a cell phone so we could keep in touch. Its a luxury he could not afford on his own and they are extremely cheap by our standards about $25 for a basic model. He was very appreciative and excited about this unexpected gift. He helped me build a chicken house from cinder blocks and an old piece of corrugated metal that he brought from his village. That evening we drove to the capitol city of Banjul, Mo gave us the insiders tour of the huge market and harbor. It had just finished raining so most of the streets had close to a foot of water on them which went mostly unnoticed by pedestrians and drivers alike as they waded their way to the next destination. Not the most attractive city but interesting non the less.
