Say Cheese

So I'm...

...back in D.C. I'm alive. I'm in one piece. I didn't get crushed in Paris, fortunately; although I was at the airport when the accident happened.

My trip, in a word, was amazing. It could have been a disaster, given that I gave myself about three weeks to prepare for it and had no grasp of any of the languages spoken in Senegal. But luckily, a kind woman, for whom I have the deepest and most profound respect and admiration, took me by the hand and made sure I didn't get into any trouble. My trip was amazing almost entirely due to her effort. Thank you Rachel.

Over the next couple of weeks, I'm hoping to write a bunch of individual pieces that will capture different parts of my trip. I also hope to get some of the pictures I took up for viewing. All of this has been complicated by my desktop computer, which has decided to pick this time to crash with a corrupted hard drive. Ugh.

For now though, my body thinks it is somewhere around 3 in the morning. I'm going to head to bed.
