No Flights

Cam's poor mom. She's been so understanding about the flies and transport and rain and lack of comforts, but tonight we took her to the airport only to find a sign on the door saying that, because of the customs/police strike, the flight to Brussels is rescheduled for tomorrow. Although everything was calm today in Conakry, the police and customs people are still on strike. We haven't heard if the teacher's union reached an agreement with the government, but will hopefully know about that tonight.

It was a little bizarre to see the gendarmes in camo directing traffic instead of the police, who wear navy uniforms.

Oh, Guinea.
