Good Morning!

Porc-épic

Wandering through a craft shop recently, we came across a pen of porcupines.

It turns out they like eating mango leaves.

Their owner started with two and now has more than eight! 

The name in French is Porc-épic - epic pork! Only they are rodents. Rodents of unusual size =)

Ukelele!

I joined the Ukelele club onboard and am really having fun with learning a new instrument. 

Rainy season

After five months of the same dry skies, rainy season is back! 

The day dawned dim and grew darker. The dock quickly turned into a giant puddle. 

When it rains, it quite literally pours in Guinea. 

A good thing about rainy season is the clouds which contribute to amazing sunsets. 

Fresh!

Our fresh stuff gets delivered to the ship in laundry baskets! It is sourced locally via our ships Chandler. I love the variety and colour as they cluster in reception.
