More african shopping

In The Gambia I also found that they where really good at batik, a manual wax-resist dyeing technique that you can see here. 

The man is "painting" on the hot wax to the fabric. 

Here you have some typical african scenes, really vibrant and artistic in my opinion. 

This is some of the most beautiful and simple patterns and colours - that I found on this compound outside Serrekunda.

Not only nice beaches...

But I did not only spend my time on nice beaches in The Gambia, I also visited Sukuta Health Clinic, a childrens hospital.

You can see it here, not like the hospitals in Sweden but all right anyhow.

You can see the entrance here, we were a group from Scandinavia that visited it one hot day.

Thay also had a pharmacy on the compound, you see it here.

Than I also visited Hart House, a home for children with learing difficulties in Serrekunda. 

This project was initiated in 2001 by Geoff Hunwicks, the man in the picture here, sitting on a bench in front of the school. 

Hart is a brit who has many ears experience with children with special needs, and he works here with his wife Rohey. You can see her in the picture here, inside the Hart House.
