Cassamance

The car ready to go and we’re off on the last leg of our trip, Dakar-ward. This place is incredibly beautiful. I sat this morning, drinking coffee and looking over the mangrove lined banks of the Cassamance river that stretches for miles and miles. Birds abound and tomorrow I am going to a manatee sanctuary. Pirogues with colourfully dressed women are punted up and down; we eat barracuda and Nile perch. We have running water and are we are clean…it’s the little things. Life is good, oh so very good.
