Ugh on circumcision for girls. I remember working on that issue, gathering data, etc, when I volunteered at the State Dept. But seeing real people who've had it done really brings it home. What else did you learn from your tour guide about Djenne? You'll have such great stories to share for the rest of your life! :) Toubab! That’s so cute!

But those girls in blue made me shudder. The foosball pic is just hilarious. Enjoying your trip from the comfort of the office.

Seeing it from the outside suited me just fine! As for where I am... Now I'm in Mopti. I'm having trouble using Google Maps, or else I'd map it out for you...
