March 26,
I am at a cyber cafe in Thies now, struggling with the French keyboard. It reduces me halfway back to the search and poke method of typing. Time is short, so I can not respond to the comments directly. But I wanted to tell you it made me feel wonderful to hear support and enthusiasm from my family. I shall soon, enjoying the leisure of time and a qwerty keyboard, type an entry about demyst, training, and my homestay. For now, I am going on a hunch and a rumor, I suggest you read about the city or region of Kolda. Everything else aside, I think you will be pleased by its proximity to the safari-full national park.
