My parents are having a good time I believe! We started off their trip with a bang and went to two crazy markets and Ile de Goree on their first day here. It's been a whirlwind, but it's been really wonderful to have them here. Just before they got here I ended up getting strep throat and thrush simultaneously, so it was very nice to have the parents around to doctor me! I'm all better now, thank goodness.
This weekend the three of us went down to Toubab Dialaw and it was very relaxing. I had to make myself stay cooped up a bit to get some work done, but mom and dad seemed to have fun. They even took a djembe (drumming) class.
Now we're back in Dakar. We ate lunch at my house today, but we were served a separate little toubab meal. Oh well, it was delicious!
Our Continuity and Change presentations were last week, as well as my French final, and I just turned in my history of Islam paper. So now all that's left is to finish writing my art paper and write up and present my literature presentation. Almost done!!
This semester has been incredible. I have no words. Actually, I have too many words. I can't wait to tell everyone all about it! I'm very much looking forward to my trip to Europe too!
I leave wonderful Dakar in 5 days now. This trip has been unbelievable.
