They just returned last July from a two-year stint with the Peace Corps in Niger. They were stationed in a small town called Tibiri, 6 miles north of Maradi.Pathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04587300140099806425noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-617652323643666421.post-91400781758127082592011-03-23T10:39:07.045+02:002011-03-23T10:39:07.045+02:00visiting from My World Tuesday...

I love a peek into the past and this was made even more interesting by the fact that you've connected with one of the original Peace Corp volunteers after all these years. <br /><br />How super, too, that you met the headmaster, had tea and cake and really had a delightfully personal encounter yourself. I so enjoyed ALL of the pictures which made it feel as though I was along for the outing, too! Thank you! :)Desireehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01069419364783245762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-617652323643666421.post-15065186442405549332011-03-22T06:18:47.957+02:002011-03-22T06:18:47.957+02:00What a great trip and step back in time.
