New Pictures

I finally posted some new photos we've taken in the last month or so. Most of them are from Women's Day and the cool park in Ouaga, but no crocodile pics yet. It's been really dusty and hazy the last month, so we're waiting to take outdoor photos.

We've decided to give up taking taxis around Ouaga because dealing with the taxi drivers is just too frustrating most of the time. We've been biking everywhere this week, which isn't too bad as long as you don't mind arriving sweaty. Biking has actually proven to be really helpful for a few reasons: 1. it's nice exercise, 2. it helps me learn my way around the city, and 3. it gives me a chance to practice my French when the cops stop me (like they did twice today) and threaten to take my bike. Luckily, I was able to talk them out of it both times (I'm just a simple village girl who doesn't know her way around the big city).

Anyways, we're heading to the south to see some animals on Monday so we'll post some more pictures soon.
