Sacrifice

And we are back with some more news from Guinee!

Last week we had a lot of problems with the IT-center, because of the water.
That's why we didn't have much to tell. But now we have!
This weekend we didn't go to one of the islands, because the doctor was to busy with the preparations for a sacrifice ceremony in honour of his deceased sister in law.
I'll let the pictures speak for themselves.



Carpooling :-)




Water problems. (Note: the building is only 8 years old)



The Benz of the Dr. had some troubles on the way back from Donka.
The next day it was good as new :-)

The Dr.'s son and his father at the car workshop.


:-p

The meat from the slaughtered bull is cut into peaces and put into bags.
These bags where later on distributed among the family during the ceremony.

Meat doesn't get more fresh than this.

The family.




Preperations for the ceremony.



Yes, this is (was) a Volvo and yes, it works!




More preperations.

The Dr.'s father and his father's brother.



Us :-p


Preperations.

Et voila!
That's it for now.
We hope to see you again soon!
