Travel details have been worked out . . . bags packed and repacked . . . ten-pound suitcases traded for three-pound duffels . . . duffels packed and repacked . . . and my wonderful friend, Ilje, even picked up more things to pack . . . and send! And - September 15th we’re off to LA to say a tearful good-bye to daughter and grandchildren, then to London, Casablanca, and finally Niamey, Niger, via Ouagadougou, which we have all had fun practicing saying! I love the online “audio dictionary,” which I am sure will become my new best-friend in a country with so many languages! (BTW - say “wah-guh-doo-goo!” And be careful, because if I lived there, I would not want people calling my city “wah-guh-doo-doo!”)
