Bonjour,
We headed toward Bassam this morning. We went through a heavy downpour
in Abidjan. Vehicles were stopped under the overpasses to wait out the
rain; that created a major traffic jam. The rain let up, and traffic
started moving again.
Joe dropped the kids and I off at the Posts' house. He and Dan went on
to Bonoua to make some visits. They finished the street that they have
been working on for some time now.
Justin had caught several tiny tree frogs. He put one in a bucket and
told Gilbert that he could take it home. They kept taking it out of the
bucket to play with it. Jennifer asked Gilbert what he was going to
name the frog. He said, "Gilbert." Danny got a hold of it and killed
the frog. Gilbert came running in and said, "Mom, Danny killed my
frog." I asked him what happened. He said, "He picked it up and just
squeezed it, Mommy, and it was dead." Justin found another frog for
Gilbert. He came in with it in his bucket. Jennifer asked him what he
was going to call that frog; he said, "Gilbert!"

We barbecued hotdogs for lunch. We had a good time of fellowship.
Bonnie got a couple naps in. Danny finally crashed too. Gilbert got a
nap in on the way home.
The Posts let us borrow National Treasure 2. They just got it in a
package. So, we watched that tonight.
A demain,
Joe, Laura, Gilbert, Danny, and Bonnie
