WARI TIGI BILLY BILLY BA!
Niaber, the lady who makes recycled rubber shoe jewellery, is one of my favourite Djenne people. She was very pleased yesterday: Birgit had sent her a sizeable advance from Amsterdam to make lots of her lovely necklaces for Birgit’s arrival in December..
Those who know Hotel Djenne Djenno can see how high the water now stands outside the hotel gate. Ace has installed the water pumps to evacuate the water from the hotel court yard when it rains, and Karim has joined Kassim for the night watch- there is need for two people to pump.
Will we survive this year's rainy season?
