After WAIST a couple of us headed south to spend a few days in The Gambia. To refresh your memory, The Gambia is a tiny country completely surrounded by Senegal except for where it is bordered by the Pacific Ocean.
Omar is a man who runs a tiny restaurant in Banjul and loves Peace Corps volunteers. Some of the most delicious food I had on our trip.
Bijilo National Park, along the coast.
We each took a yearbook photo by the ocean.
The Gambia River divides the country into the North Bank and the South Bank. Here, we are crossing to the north side on the ferry to start our trip upcountry.
Further upcountry, we crossed the river back to the south side. The ferry we took held two cars and was pulled across the river by a steel cable (and our hands).
