MALI and Timbuktu, the Film

RIVER NIGER IN THE RAIN.

RIVER NIGER IN THE RAIN.

Timbuktu is unqualifiedly a brilliant film—and soon I will post a review of it; mostly I will quote other smartly written reviews and just add personal notes of what it meant to me.

Before publishing the review, I want to share two or three small photo albums from my 2010 trip to Mali.

This is partly to give me a little more writing time, but also to help me narrow down which photo I will eventually frame to remember that trip. These first few aren’t in contention for framed photo—rather I am so deep into travel planning mode these day that I’m thinking maybe some photos reminding me of the more mundane aspects of travel might calm me down.

IT RAINS AND IT SHINES AT THE SAME TIME… My dad always said “IT RAINS AND IT SHANES AT THE SAME TAME.” to describe this weather. And I always think of it.
