We heard from Sarah last week who told us that Ginger Mauney (family friend) got a chance to visit and speak with the girls in Swakopmund. She is a documentary filmaker now living in Namibia who has made films about baboons, African Bushmen, and the elephants of Etosha. She is also c0-author of the book: Best of Friends:Two Women, Two Continents, and One Enduring Friendship. See http://www.nytimes.com/2007/07/15/books/review/Byer-t.html for a synopsis and review. Her part of the book talks alot about Namibia and her work there. She spoke about her work and what's it's like to be an American in Namibia and took their questions. A direct quote from her: The girls asked thoughtful questions and laughed easily - two good signs - and the teachers are very nice.
Love the Namibian Salt pan photo.
