We went out to another village this week. We had a great visit with a Senegalese woman - she was a hoot. She danced for us and we had a great time listening to her and our supervisors wife shoot the breeze. We walked along the beach and talked with some kids. Below are some pictures from the day:


This is the view as we come around a corner to drive along side the ocean - it is one of my favorite views - minus the billboard!


This is a Lebou fishing village we walked through - it was cool to see all of the boats that were there.

This was a different thing to see on the beach! Never saw goats along the shore in Myrtle Beach!!

Saturday we are going to our guards village for the day - it should be interesting day full of language and culture. He is a great guy and we are excited to meet his wife and family. Not sure what it is going to look like, but are excited none the less!
Our helper fixed us dinner tonight and she cooked rice and fish. It included the fish heads - ugh. We shared with our guard and he was so excited to get the fish heads! We explained that we weren't a big fan and he said that the Senegalese love the heads. After he asked us what we wanted to eat in the village and we quickly said - no fish heads! Our head had the eyes, teeth, mouth - not ready for that yet!
Pray that we in our limited language will be able to make a positive impression so as to be able to share the gospel.
