| MALI: Work |
| My trip in 1999, was in the height of the dry season ............. hot. My latest trip, though , ocurred right as people were harvesting their millet fields. So, unlike the laid back atmosphere of tea drinking and napping that Ben, Katie and I , encounterd, this trip was bustling with activity - Every step we took there were people harvesting and sorting crops, caring for their animals, preparing their compounds, buying - selling, and of course drinking ataya (tea). |
