Happy Birthday MoMMY!!!!

I wanted to call my mom to wish her a Happy Birthday, but I'm still getting used to this system of communication. If some one reads this before 7am on Feb 26th Colorado time... please call William and Judy Rizley and have them call me at the Conakry house between 7am or _ am their time. If they don't have the number they can get it from Nuku...
If I donùt get to talk to you Mom I hope you have a wonder ful Birthday just the same and I'll try to talk to you soon!!

As for other News I don't think I've said where I'm going yet. I'll be living and working in Niandankoro north of KanKan. I hear it's a wonderful site and I heard there's a lot of dancing and drumming so I'm really excited. It's right a long the Niger river. Our site visit was rescheduled for next Sat through WED!!!! So I'll let you know more about it after I visit.

Stay tuned...

JUst a little adjusting

It's true that I embraced guinea from day one, but there have been some small things that have required a little more effort on my part:
*Not understanding the majority of conversations around me (this is getting better)
*The 5am Mosque call for prayer
*Along with that rooster outside my window that won't SHUT UP!!! (Hopefully I'lll get him for dinner soon
*Protien filled ants served with my dinner...Fear Factor Africa!!!
*Sqatting and aiming for the latrine


*running out of time on internet
