... verleitete: Bilder auf den Rechner gezogen, dann den Chip formatiert (also komplett geloescht). Das hat die verdaechtigen Dinger zwar eliminiert, nun kam aber ein anderes Problem auf: Als ich meine Bilder wieder zurueckladen wollte, kam nach einer Weile eine Fehlermeldung, die besagte, es koenne diese und jene Bild-Datei nicht kopiert werden, da sie beschaedigt sei. Das Dumme dabei: Sie meinte damit knapp 450 Bilder. Als ich versuchte ...

... mit zwei Buechern eingedeckt: Zum einen mit "The English Patient", was ich aber nur vom Namen her kenne und gekauft habe, weil der Film ziemlich gut sein soll, und zum anderen mit Richard Adams "Watership Down", was ich zwar schon tausend Mal gelesen habe, aber noch nie im englischen Original. Aber ich haetts mir auch auf Deutsch nochmal geholt. =) Gestern folgte dann der vielleicht ereignisreichste Tag bis jetzt: Morgens gings ins Abuko Nature Reserve, einem kleinen ...

... Trockenzeit von November bis Maerz an den Straenden liegen, in der Armutsfalle sitzen wuerden, jedoch hat das die Mentalitaet der Leute groesstenteils verdorben. Fuer jede Kleinigkeit verlangt man hier Geld - selbst dann, wenn man nur nach dem Weg fragt oder zwei Saetze mit einem geredet hat. Besonders die Tatsache, dass die meisten Besucher in europaeischen Dimensionen denken und glauben, dass man fuer eine Ladung Kebap gleich 3 Euro zahlen muss, hat hier zu der ...

... art activities, to our group discussions, to the salad we served with lunch (mixed fresh vegetables is a strange idea for Gambians). But our expectations were flexible, and the children were remarkably open enough that, besides the salad that largely ended up in the trash, the Gambian and the American seemed to mix quite well. I'd been a little terrified that we would be left with a small, blank faced, silent crowd for the whole day, but almost every students who signed up arrived ...

... Corps and told me about her work for the provision of health care in the rural areas. She was on her way back from a meeting at a local hospital. Keen to avoid the dark I said goodbye and carried onto the missed turning. Jangjang-burah or Georgetown as it was called in colonial times is sited on McCarthy Island in the Gambia river. There is very little through traffic as the north and south ferry crossings only take 3 cars ...

... Bryan received the most consistent, vocal attention from the hospital yet at this point, as they questioned and lectured him until they finally made some sort of arrangement and let him wander, now alone and loopy, out of the hospital. He then had to arrange three different taxi rides until he finally stumbled back into happy camp. In the end, It's kind of hard to know whether he should be more proud of surviving Malaria or the hospital. EIther way, though, it was one hell of a weekend.

... life of Suso. We were all leaning in close, seated around the living room couches, captivated by what this soft-spoken man said, because it was so real and significant and beautiful. Sidibeh had worked to record the stories and songs of the griots, with the knowledge that children from griot families were going off to become lawyers and doctors instead of continuing the griot tradition, and the knowledge the griots had was generally being forgotten in a world of more urgent, flashy ...

... there was only one male in the grounds, obviously a bit of a player. Their facial expressions and reactions are as complex as ours, if not more so. They seem so relaxed in the company of human beings, whether that's because they are used to tourists feeding them or because they know that we're distant relatives, I don't know. They would sometimes make eye contact with me whilst eating and I wished that they could talk or tell me what they were thinking... Not only did ...
