trip part 2

So after the concert we caught the PC shuttle to Mopti. I pretended to be the kid in charge of taking money... We spent four nights in Mopti for our COS conference (Close of Service). It was a lot of fun to see people I haven't seen in over a year, exchange stories and find out what everyone is doing. There's actually a large number of us extending, I think it's like 15 out of 50. Oh yeah and the food was really good and there was a pool. One afternoon we took some beers on the Niger river for a pirogue ride dubbed 'the booze cruise.' I bought some turban fabric and that's about it for Mopti.. it was a cool town but very expensive, they get a lot of tourists.
