Hello from the Gambia!
We arrived safely yesterday after a good flight, despite being 15 kilos over our baggage allowance - luckily we didn't have to pay any extra for it and got all 11 suitcases here ok. We are now settled into the hotel and are busy planning our itinerary for the next 3 weeks, starting with our first art lesson at KMJ nursery tomorrow morning.
We'll hopefully be able to update the blog every two or three days with photos and news of what we have been doing so far, but the internet is not overly reliable, and power cuts are quite frequent as we have just discovered!
Wandifa was pleased to see us all as always, and was delighted with his new PAGEANT (personalised) hat! He's looking well and is very much looking forward to accompanying us on all our trips. Here is a photo of Frances, Wandifa, Lauren and Rosie modelling the new PAGEANT caps!
