Rhom

Bonjour bonjour! I'm in Conakry on "vacay" for spring break. It's been great to see all my friends here and the ride here wasn't bad either, my car kept all 4 of its wheels on this time. Yesterday I took a boat (or a huge canoe with a motor) to an island to spend the day on the beach. This canoe had boards missing and water kept seeping through. A guy had to use a big bucket to scoop water out throughout this 45 min. trip. It was very exciting and kind of scary. While we were traveling at massive speeds of 10 mph, we saw many old, abandon ships along the way. The beach was amazing and even "clean". We grilled hot dogs and had some fish and spent the whole day riding the waves. I'm in Conakry until tomorrow morning, but I just wanted to write a quick blog. Things are still going well at site. I did lose my phone service, apparently they turned the antenna in Labe so the other side of Labe now has service. This morning I went to the US Embassy. I'm working on getting a well for my school, so we will see how that goes. I hope all is well with you guys. I miss you!!
Happy Easter!
