The flight landed just before a beautiful sunrise. It was good to be together at the airport briefly with everyone before spending a day catching up (with the 6 hour time change). The weather was sunny and warm. This evening I attended an event at the French Cultural Center, a lively multimedia presentation with video, recorded music and live kora music. The kora is a beautiful 21 stringed West African guitar/harp instrument. Some of my other favorite things here are the traditional ginger drink, yassa (a Senegalese chicken dish made with black pepper and onions), the ocean, and the colorful fabrics worn by both men and women.
Tomorrow we will worship together and then Karen and Malcolm will host the group for a sumptuous lunch, including homemade chocolate cake.
