HeyALL

Well, Another week is done, almost, TOmmrow I go traveling agian to the west to see that part of the coastal area.
TOday we went to a community called Madina ZONGO, The name means a lot, as it implies large Muslem population, I was looking at the drainage situation and met some very interesting people. THere are no good drainage systems, people are supposed to biuld little ones in front of their house and the governemnt will help if the community puts some money up front, but there is no money, and the poor draniage makes for two things road errosion and more problematic really really bad sanitation, green and white liquades run down the street adding to it as they go are more house holds. Kids run around in bear feet and the smeel is attocious, but yet people are happy and attempting to do something, they know this is a problem and solutions are being looked for, even with little to no money available, and maybe the governmetn can do somehitng, slowly but surly.

I wish you all the best, PEACE adn LOVE
