Photos of last days together

This is Eileen. She works for United Airlines and she was wonderful to us. Known for her patience and hospitality - we really appreciated her help.

The Dark Night of Dakar - we spend over 3 hours in line - and then an additonal 1.75 hours in the plane on the tarmac.
This is our team on Gore - our guide was Mussafa - we called him the Dakar Express guy- we always went to the head of the line with him,
Our wonderful hosts - Ken and Cheryl Creech. They took so much time to show us around and demonstrate true hospitality. Many thanks.
Local fishermen - you can see why they were waving at us.
Our daughters enjoying the sun.
This is one of the Gore Island's main attractions- the statue of the freed slaves.
This is the slave masters' house where all of the auctions took place. The holding cells are beneath the house.
