The flights from Atlanta to Tambo Airport with a stopover in Dakar was pretty good. For spending 30 some hours in airports and planes, the time went by quickly. Though I will say that the insecticide they sprayed in the plane at Dakar was weird, but apparently mandatory.
All five of us (US Fulbright teachers) were met by Lucy from the Embassy, and then we travelled to our guest house which is beautiful. Today, we went to the Embassy and to the Brooklyn Mall for some shopping. If that wasn't funny enough, then we had lunch at the Tribeca Cafe where we had pizza. Basically, it's like being in NYC.
Exciting news, I drove my car today on the "wrong side", with no problems, though I had two people in the car helping me, and I turned on the window wipers about 8 times, instead of my turn signal!
The weather is cooler than I thought, but hopefully it will warm up this weekend when I travel to Kwamhlanga, my new home for the next year.
