"The Gambian Connection: Distant Beat" - Part 2 of The Gambia series

Part two of the CBC Special report about the Nova Scotia connection to The Gambia can be seen here. Again, this piece requires the RealPlayer to view, it can be downloaded here.

Also, I spoke last night with Mr. Neyestani, a canadian Baha'i serving on the National Assembly in The Gambia, who is currently visiting family in Canada. He answered some specific questions about where I will be staying (a two room appartment connected to the Baha'i Regional Centre) as well as questions I had about the type of visa I need to get into the country - As it turns out I only need a tourist visa to get there, and we sort the rest out once I'm there. Many more things to do today, contact a travel agency to find out prices, send away the form and stuff to apply for a visa, etc.
