Toby took this picture. Isn't it cool?

Weaving.
Look at all of those flies!! No wonder we weren't allowed to eat much of the food from the market!
Just a cool picture.

If you can't bring it up it talks about 4 kidnapped tourists on the Mali border. Interesting eh?
I love your pictures! Keep 'em coming, I'm jealous of your trip. We have to get the kids together soon, we're getting stir-crazy staying inside!
Karissa, I am LOVING your record of the trip. And I'm super jealous still. What amazing memories.
