Thanks to vaccinations, I felt comfortable going out to dinner at Mamba Point with John and our fabulous friend and neighbor Ian, who we first met in Pakistan. Ian will be leaving soon, and we lamented not being able to spend more time together – thanks, COVID.
We enjoyed a small gathering downstairs with our friend Michael, with guests of honor who are here to make a plan for a historical Liberian site. I met new, interesting, and fun neighbors and learned more about Liberian history. We also caught up with Michael on Monday night when he came up for a glass of wine after work – good times.
I worked all weekend, in the office on Saturday and at home on Sunday. There’s never enough time to get everything done! John and I did enjoy some down time this week, watching “Mare of Easttown” with Kate Winslet, the lovely “My Octopus Teacher,” and “Mank.” I also had a great video chat with Pam, Ann, and Jackie last Sunday.
