What a busy week. Steve and Jeremy opted to stay at home while Sue and I went with Malik to Serrekunda market this morning.
Kebba had gone across to Barra to meet Mike and Faith who were returning from
their trip up country after two weeks.
Malik came with us to fend off anyone else who wanted to ‘help’ us with our
shopping and translate where necessary.
I was looking for uniform material, Sue just wanted to see the
market. We walked around looking for
several items and then decided to drive to the Emporium, a large store, before
driving down to Kololi to the craft market.
We popped into Yashmine for a cold drink and then Sue and Malik went
into the market looking for Batik. All purchases complete
we returned home for a last swim in the pool for Sue before we left for dinner and
the airport. We were enjoying the
afternoon sun when the taxi arrived with Mike and Faith who had crossed with
the small boats, helped by Kebba. Faith
had really enjoyed her trip and we arranged to meet tomorrow for lunch and a
debrief, she and Mike are moving into Hanks bar in Kololi this afternoon, where
Mike is going to give advice to Hank about increasing the profit on his restaurant food this week. Last minute packing for Sue and Jeremy and
then off we went to Timeless for a last meal before taking them to the airport for
their return flight. We watched them
through passport control and then returned home to a quiet house!
