Monkey! Have you seen the HIMYM yet where Marshall says a monkey robbed him?
Dear Ed.: Have I mentioned to you my fondness for carabiners?
Dear Kate: So will you be in town for the Hair tour in February?
Safe Journeys! Hi Kate & Chris,
Once again I've thoroughly enjoyed your Blog and all the pictures! You have been to some fascinating places and seen some Beautiful sights. What a Wonderful Honeymoon! I just wanted to wish you well & Safe Travels on your next Adventures. I'll see you in Ohio Kate...& you too Chris, by next summer! And Chris......I'm GLAD you DIDN'T Touch The Monkey!!! Chris
It finally hit me. I thought Chris was writing a commentary to someone named Ed and then I realized it meant editor. Dah!
The pictures are gorgeous. Why no picture of the monkey fight or Chris with snake?
Scary Fish/BIG TEETH Hi Kate and Chris,
Again, I enjoyed your Blog and the photos. It looks like you're having an Amazing time & more Adventures! Glad YOU had to eat/look at That FISH and Not ME!! No Way I'd let that thing near me....even if he was Cooked!! Funny how some "taste of home" [Kenny Rogers] is a Welcome Sight when you're Far Away...Same CRAPPY food though!! Enjoy your time away from Ohio! Nice that you'll be back in "The area" sometime relatively soon....bet your parents are Thrilled.....NOT SURE YOU WILL BE THOUGH KATE!!! Take Care! Chris
Yum That happens to the bowl all the time after my family finishes eating we eat it separately we only eat together if its a holiday and ... i'm Gambian!!!
Looks Like Fun! Hi Kate, It looks like you & Chris had some more Adventures & some FUN along the way! Not sure I'd like to eat some of the food choices but some of the sights look fabulous.
Nice blog Hey Kate,
Nice blog there!
I just wanted to say that the "tumb of Ahmadu Bamba" is not actually the building pictured here. If I am not wrong this is the tumb of Serigne Fallou, 2nd Calif of the Murids. It is outside the mosque, whereas Bamba's resting place is inside.
Also, I don't think that the strict separation between men and women, emphasized in one of your nice pictures, is an absolute rule that applies every time and everywhere in Tuba. In the past, I visited the city (Library, Mosque, the well of Aynu Rahmatu, etc) many times with my American students but have never been asked to follow such a rule.
All that being said, I should reiterate that I very much enjoyed sifting through your blog.
Best,
IS
happy happy Kate and Chris-I am so happy for you-I just didn't expect it this soon. cried through the whole blog. my little Katie all grown up and married. I love Chris as much as I love you since you picked him-he's got to be great.

Kate, I can't believe your eating all that different fish. It sounds yukki to me! Sounds like you are having a great time. What kind of a job did you get?The fruit market looked good. Love You-Aunt Marie
fried octopus balls I commented to a friend about the fried octopus balls and their response was they didn't know octopi had balls. Yum
Enjoyed your blog!
I''m ready! I'm ready for another "Kate Adventure". I survived Senegal and now I'm ready to take on Tokyo. The pictures were amazing. No guarantee that I'll try octopus balls or raw horse meat but pretty much anything else on your list of "must dos".
Jealous I always see your photos, stories and what not on facebook and am so jealous. I love to travel and its seems like you've been almost everywhere. Its so cool! I'm very jealous.
