Howto Knock Down Block Wall

GOR


Salaamaleykum,
nice and relaxed Greetings from Dakar. First
's filed later as promised the photos from last weekend with a trip to Isle de Goree.
Goree tourism


And then I was this weekend from Friday to Sunday weekend on the GOR in the vicinity of St. Louis in northern Senegal (also because I need the Subsequent addition pictures, sorry).
We are up with NEM private pick-up in 4 hours and it is interesting how dry it is there, suddenly one of the area occurs here as a green oasis. But another 100km further and you're in the desert of Mauritania.
The encampment where we were wonderfully situated on a 200m thin "spit" that extends from about 30km to the south of St. Louis and the Senegal River to the sea Endausläufer separated. so you have a kind of lagoon on one side and on the other the Atlantic - and in between the beach! One has made a video in which he mounted his camera to a kite has, he has verrsprochen make it on youtube as soon as I post the address I got it from here. And
Hey man, the time there was really relaxing: the entire WE we were in teams (with the most unbelievable name) each and had little competitions and sporting events among themselves. We were the Les Phachoches (which means something like wild boar or warthog), plus we had a "German precision engineering built mascot with orange spots! As activities gave it to Frisbee golf, soccer, football, canoeing and fall (not the team), log throwing (is I think a Scottish sport), bodyboarding (cool waves!), Etc.
addition to all the fun and great, fresh food was it especially cool to meet other employees of Christ here in Senegal. To see what and how they work, how ihnen so geht und gemeinsamen Austausch zu haben. Am Sonntag morgen war dann noch ein gemeinsamer Gottesdienst im Freien und dannach ging´s mit dem Priogue (ein kleines, buntes Fischerboot) zurück über die Lagune und zurück nach Dakar.

Wie versprochen kommen die Bilder nach, die Batterien meiner Kamera haben leider den Geist aufgegeben, aber ich bekomm noch von anderen Leuten (mit besserem Equipment) nachgereicht.

So dann, macht´s gut und schöne erste Adventswoche (ist ein bisschen hart hier in Weihnachtsstimmung zu kommen)

Mike
