Parents Visit (pics # 5)

Meeting the guys that I work with at the traditional medicine center in Bandiagara.

The traditional medicine that is made from the traditional medicine center that I work at.

A wing of the production facility at the traditional medicine center...the bags are filled with leafs, roots, and barks used to produce the medicine.

The streets of Bandiagara...Muslims don't eat pork but Christian tourists do...yummy.

Ashley checkin her email at the hotel Kanaga in Mopti.

Debbie, Jerry & Sue coolin off in the pool at the Hotel Kanaga.

Jerry & Joe hiking in Dogon country.

Doobers climbing up to the ruins.

The Dogons are famous for the doors they make and this is one of them at our hotel/campamant.


The sinks at our hotel/campamant.


Our beds set up on the roof of our hotel...best spot for watching stars and staying cool.

Ashley is always happy when family is around.

  2. Hi Joe and Ashley,

    "WOW" the view of your hotel stays always look fun and relaxing. Joe, thanks for showing us more pictures of your work place. It's good to see where and who you work with. The guys look really friendly. I bet mom and dad were very excited to see the traditional medicine center. Very cool!!!!! Dad in his African outfit and mom with her stylish bag to go with. Thanks for all the pictures you took on your "big adventure".
