Say Yes in The Gambia, Africa (2016)

Everyone one thought I was crazy to go on such a whim alone, but I just felt I was in good hands. I had the time of my life and can't wait to return. I will, again...be better dressed for the occasion though.

It wasn't walking down the broad way, but the journey was fun once I wasn't afraid to get a little dirty outside... until I returned to my Queendom; a guarded Villa to myself!

The entire journey was a bit wearing, but I will be better prepared next time. There was a lot to love about the tall infrastructures and gates!

I felt like a princess in a castle, smelling the flowers, eating fresh fruit, befriending the small creatures.

My favorite this after seeing small ducks and kittens playing together, was a dog leading a herd of cattle every where I went. I saw this dog and his cattle at least 3 times, even at the beach, where he waited at the exit, for them to (maybe) drink? I had to ask, “where is the person for them animals?” If I ever owned a dog, I'd hope it to be so well trained. I also rode a horse for the first time! Some time I will try on my own without someone holding the rope lol.

The people were very kind, though I could tell I stuck out like a sore thumb. Some asked what I was mixed with and many said I looked Ethiopian. They have a cute language. Their language is half English and Senegal's is half French. They had a lot of beautiful art and dresses. I returned with a new summer wardrobe, and most importantly, my beloved King! It was an absolute fairytale. Still waiting on the continuum! I have high hopes!
