Change in dates

Sorry for any inconviences this may cause, but my trip home to the States has changed due to some events potentially happening here in late June. As a result, I will be arriving in Atlanta on July 3rd for about a 3 and a half week trip...thanks mom and dad.

Pictures - Trip to Saly

Fixed...Here are some pictures from a rare trip away from work and out of Dakar, when I went to Saly in late April for a couple of days.

Pictures - Ngor Island

Here are some pictures taken a few Sundays ago when I was out at Ngor Island with some friends. The island is about 1 km off the northwest coast of Dakar.

Update

I apologize that it has been so long since my last update. Hopefully, over the course of the next week, I can add a few more posts as well as update my pictures.

In the meantime, I just want to provide yall with an update on my vacation. Due to a potential visit to the garden in late June, there is a good chance I will change my vacation from June 1 - 24 to around June 29 - July 23. With my scheduled vacation two weeks away, I am hoping to know more early next week. I will keep everyone updated when I know more.

Rainy Season Predictions

While the rains have yet to come, they are looming. In the past, Dakar has been known to flood, alot. Disease outbrakes have apparently not been uncommon. This year is going to be an interesting one. Nearly every major road in the city and the only major road leaving the city is under major construction, which can be a nightmare even when things are normal. I predict that I might as well find a boat to get myself to work because transportation is just going to be a sight to see.

New Addition to the Bachelor Room Pad

After nearly 11 months, I have been graced with a magnificent new refrigerator. I've somewhat forgotten what it is like to have one of my own, but it is a nice new addition to my bachelor pad. Next up...plasma tv with satellite.
