So in typical fasion our lift to Conakry fell through. Not his fault but again we learn to assume and rely on nothing or nobody…
So now we’re flying it predictably took all day to get the flights sorted. We got a local taxi to Banjul from Serekunda, only to realise that the office we wanted was back in Serekunda when we got there..
I naively assumed I could pay in the offic with Visa and I couldn’t. I went to 2 banks close by and neither of them took visa, so I got a taxi to the ATM which wasn’t working. The bank connected to the atm closes every day from 1-4 so that was a no go.

So I had to convert euro that Iwas keeping for my course in Guinea to Dalisise only to have to draw dalasise on my visa today and convert them back to euro again from Guinea.

So is life…hahaha…

So we waited at the office for and hour. Then got to the dsk and from there it took 45 minute to get the tickets because they ran out of ticet paper.

So we’re sitting there and I asked the girl, where the ticket paper we’re waiting on is coming from. She says the office. I say which office thinking there may be one in Banjul after all.

She says no this office. They have to go through the procedure to get the paper which is what was taking so long.

This is where we are though. Life is so slow and I love it. I’m so chilled out I could fall over! I’m far better form the last 2 days and am enjoying myself.

We went to watch our teachers troupe perform 2 nights ago and he invited us up to play with them which was a bit mad, butr very cool… They play so fast it’s nuts. I was barely hanging on with basic accompaniments…

We trained again with Akassa today and have been invited to reherse with them 5, so I must run….
