Arrival (by Thom)

We're happy to report that Amanda's dad, Ron, and his friend Kathleen arrived safely last night in Bamako, Mali! We'll be spending the next two weeks introducing him to his new grand-daughters and catching up. Also, our old camera was dying so I ordered a new one that Ron brought with him. Expect a lot of new pictures soon. Here's a taste with the very flirty Miriam and the watermelon stand next to our house.
UPDATE: I've gone a little photo-crazy! We've added a bunch of pictures of the girls and some of our neighborhood. You can see them here and here.
