Well, that's a great blog man, probably the most useful one on the site, you didn't miss a thing there. I think probably your in DRC now, look forward to reading that one...
What?! So.....this is the end, is it?! I thought you two were going to be in Africa forever!
It's been quite a trip Bobbie, hey! A trip i was always more than happy to follow, thanks to your writing and photographic talents. This blog is by far the most well done and exciting one i've ever come across. You've been a long way since that first long trip of yours in China, which you once told me about.
Having a special passion for photography, as you know, i was especially pleased to discover all your images. Whether it be portraits, nature or moments of life....your vision and portrayal of Western Africa is one of great sensitivity. I like to hope with you that some day this region, and the rest of this amazing but sadly forgotten continent, will rise and be recognized for its rich cultural differences, natural beauty and diversity, rather than for its resources that were and continue to be plundered over the centuries. My country certainly has a lot to answer for as far as Western Africa is concerned!
I will miss these mails in my box telling me about le flow's new entry. One thing you didn't succeed though, is to avoid a personal meeting with miss Malaria!
Have a smooth return to Sweden, and do something about those pics!
Fred, your secret admirer!
Hell of a journey Hi. Your blog is astounding. I'm really impressed by your concise summaries and excellent photos - I know how hard that can be on the road.
I lived in Senegal for a year, and dreamt about going to Cameroon. I never met anyone who made the trip by land, but you make me want to try.
Are you still on the road now? Where is your stopping point? Again, kudos. You deal with everything in a straight-forward and open-minded way, in what can be a very foreign, difficult part of the world.
The best blog Yours is my favorite Africa blog, but I have declined to comment until Nigeria because I don't agree with your views on countries. I have passed through many of the same places as you on my trip and not had the problems or criticisms that you had on them. But I agree with you 100% on Nigeria. I am in Calabar now, soon to join you in Cameroon. Did you stay at the ECWA guest house in Kano? The building site looks like the view from my room.
Monkeylove Splended and splended journey. Ithink you fixed your camera, the sharpnes and brightnes is bake,good. Be careful white your hairy friend
it might be your oant Stina! Give Aili my warm wishers, iam locking forward fore next one. See and hears
Brilliant One of the best travelblogs I've read in a long time, and I've been an avid travelblog reader for years. You're taking people to places that they would never be brave enough to go - including me.
No more gods Ahhh, Religion. What would we do without it and the wonderful things it brings us?, except live in peace maybe.
Islam is intolerant of other peoples beliefs, a new type of backward thinking, nazi ideolgy to deal with.
Livet börjar på nytt Tjena Bobbie!
Jag börjar precis återvända till livet nu. Allt kommer att läka ihop sig för mig.
Tack för kortet och vi(jag och Catta) följer med spänning er vidare resa.
Har du möjlighet att skicka någon ljudfil med något gottigt. sal@.......osv
Som farsgubben din säger "ha dé bäst"/Salle
Fantastiskt Helt fantastiskt, det ni gör och upplever. Förstår att det är tufft ibland men ni får med er minnen och värden för hela livet. Vilka fina bilder Boobie! Jag tror inte alls att du har fått det efter pappa. Han har ju aldrig kunnat plåta. Pratade kort med farsgubben igår kväll. Allt var bra där hemma. Ha det fortsatt bra önskas från Torslanda.
Awesome Pics hey there - just stumbled across this blog - pictures are amazing. especially love the of the little kid peering throught the circle. I remember watching that Guana game - somewhere in Poland I think... they were robbed! E
Tur att d u inte dog får jagt lov att säga. Var det ball få malaria annars? Hörde att man kan dö av skiten. DET hade varit lite....nej mycket tråkigt. Annars..
Kusinen din, är på ett spa....eler nåt? I 10 veckor tror jag. Han behöver vila upp sig nämligen...
Men iaf, grattis till en mycket lyckad blogg och jag avundas dig och aili....trots the hardships.
Hi You don't know me but I happened across your blog a couple of months ago and I am now hooked!! Your trip seems all the more fabulous due to the wonderful way you write about it. I can't wait for the next installment! Have fun..
Glad to read that you have recovered I have been reading with keen interest of your travels. I was getting concerned that I had not heard from you since your last entry ended with your meeting with Ms. Malaria. Glad to see that you have recovered and are back on the road. Thank you for sharing this grand adventure!
Your Trip WOW - Im so impressed with your travel experiences and your photography is simply amazing! It brought a tear to my eye, really! Hope you're having a fantastic time out there...
ps - you dont know me, im just a traveller interested in Africa!
Treat that lady right! Talk about ending with a cliffhanger... just make sure you go out of your way to keep her in check, here's hoping for a recovery without relapse. Oh, and as as always, a fascinating read!
hi bobby hey bobby great to hear from you and see your doing such wonderful and beautiful travels , bit jelous really. i am trying to set up a yoga business here in my town, cos i hate the 9-5 work life. loving life. good to see your smiley happy face. good times
Hi Bobbie! Some news and a bit of reassurance would be most welcome my friend. I would have hoped for something other than Miss Malaria, as you call it, for your next rendez-vous at the border of Niger!
Tough shit that is, but Africa is also famous for its unfriendly mosquitoes, as we all know!
I'm sure Aili is taking good care of you, and i like to believe you're alright. You're a strong man!
Drop a line if you can, will you.
Hey Bobbie, good to see you back here, read your words and see your photos! I can see them all i think.........all this amazing butterflies world, and images of Western Africa, which look almost like the ones that come out of my imagination.
Keep it up, and a late "Happy birthday" to Aili!
All the best to you both,
fredji
