Workstation : Cotonou

I just spent my first week down south back in Porto Novo for IST. I went to visit my host family. They were happy to see me.
Right now I'm waiting for the shower to be vacant. I'm going to the beach for Christmas. It's so different being down south. My friend Dione and I have a real plan for the day.
1/ Artisan's Market
2/ Embassy to drop off a letter
3/ Lunch
4/ Old America Clothes Market
5/ Rest
6/ Walk on the beach

One of the fullest days... only days I've planned... since getting to post (of course, I'm not AT post). I'm leaving tomorrow to go visit my friend Julia's post.
I haven't felt much like writing lately. Nothing to say.
It's funny how things here just kind of become... normal.

  1. Sounds like a great day! Hope you had fun. Met a girl at church the other day who just returned from two years in the PC in the south pacific. Only a few days back and she looked a little in shock ;-). Of course we talked about you.
    Hope you have a GREAT Christmas day and make some special memories of your Christmas in Benin! We'll be thinking of you.
    Love ya!
