Pictures: Round 6

Kids in Tubmanburg...and a turtle. I was much more impressed with the turtle, than they were. It was just walking around the courtyard.


Pigs at a farm in Tubmanburg.


A Lebanese boy who was on vacation with his Lebanese dad and Egyptian mom in Tubmanburg. He was climbing a look-out tower at Pakistani Point. As much as I trusted the professional Pakistani UNMIL troops, and their never-ending committment to the Liberian-Pakistani Friendship, the look-out tower seemed a bit unstable to me.


Kids in Tubmanburg. The one of the left is sucking on the beads of a cross necklace.


Kids in Tubmanburg trying to sell some food after mass.

This was my flight from Monrovia to Freetown. Clearly nobody wanted to leave Liberia the day before the inauguration, except for people like me who weren't thinking when they booked their plane tickets.


Me and "John," the amazing Carter Center/Associated Press guy who helped me with everything. Should I still be using a pseudonym now that I am showing his picture? Not sure. (Don't worry. We are at the airport. This is the day I left. I wasn't planning on walking the streets of Monrovia in a tank top.)


The Red Cross had a project attempting to reunite families torn apart during the war. These posters showed pictures of children (who are living) but don't know where their parents are.
