Hard work on the beach

Today we joined up with an amazing team of people who voluntarily help out at an orphanage and  a care home for handicapped children nearby . The owners of our compound contribute their time and use their contacts with tourists like us to support these ventures.

Fish supper

Our guide purchased the fish for us and sugested his wife would cook it "Gambian style" for us. We willingly excepted his generosity , to be honest we had been struggling to find out what Gambian cuisine was like. He drove us to his compound in Serracunda. This town has one of the largest Street markets in Africa we might be ready for it now. It is a hot dusty exhaust filled town a hive of straggled (there's that word again) industry and dusty recycled commerce .
