La Pirogue

I took a ride on a dugout canoe (une pirogue) in a lagoon on the coast of Cote d'Ivoire. It was pretty interesting. I also got a tour through the local village where I saw some old men playing a game, little kids, and the fishermen getting thier nets and boat ready to head out for the night.

Summer vacation

Ok, below are several entries from our summer vacation, with photos and videos. We hope you enjoy!

Pow-wow video

On our way out to Vernal with the Wrays we stopped to see a pow-wow. It was an interesting contrast to reed dances, Zulu warrior dances, etc. It reminded us how rich and fascinating American history and culture can be.

The Wrays

We had a nice time with our friends the Wrays. It was good to see them again and hang out in Vernal, visiting Amy's family farm. We enjoyed seeing another part of Utah. We hiked up a mountain to see Fremont rock art, went to the dinosaur museum, and watched Ute dancing at a pow-wow. It was a lot of fun.
