Niger River

The boat became more and more loaded, and consequently noisier and dirtier as we went. I found 1 woman shitting in the shower and a chap peeing on the floor of the loo. The trip was interesting rather than spectacular and again our lack of French didn't help, though it is getting better. Everyone was very friendly and wanted to chat, it becomes a bit of a pain sometimes when you can't get any peace and quiet. I was esepcially friendly with a physics teacher from Timbuctoo called Adama. He gave us a lecture on terminal velocity and gravity.Läs mer
