Took off from Liberia & flew up to Dakar - the westernmost tip of Africa. Dakar is next to the worst Malaria spot in the World. We had to wear
our pants tucked into our boots, repellent, and everything to keep away the mosquitoes. They have the weirdest looking trees there - they are about 8 ft. in diameter and only about 15 ft. tall with no leaves & very few branches.

Went over to the dispensary with wisdom tooth trouble and they were going to send me to a hospital for 3-4 days but the Major persuaded them to let me go on to Marrakech.

Played hearts in the evening.
