Weekend in Banfora

Addie, Meredith & Brian swimming at Hotel Jackson. We were supposed to go see the waterfalls, but it was a 30 km bike ride roundtrip and so we’ll do that “next time.” Note that we are too poor to stay in the huts surrounding the pool, so we pay $4 to use the pool.

Sara, Kat, me and Dave chillin’ near Kat’s room at Hotel Canne à Sucre. Kat has not slept in days due to an infestation of bats in her home, but looks great anyway!

A meal at the one of two non-African restaurants in Banfora, a Japanese restaurant whose name escapes me.

Hanging out in the second of Brad’s two courtyards (secondary ed teachers seem to have the best houses among volunteers). Not pictured: bonfire, Brad’s tile floors, flush toilet, indoor shower, huge kitchen, etc.

Brunch at the second of the two non-African restaurants in Banfora, an American-style restaurant charmingly named McDonald’s.
