Blue sky, sunshine, lots of birds and trees and plants and colour. Well, at least after around 8.00 in the morning. It was just getting light when we arrived at Lamin Lodge and pitch black when we left the hotel (there'd just been a power cut so it was torchlight to the car), But when the sun came up it was beautiful. A whole new collection of birds but also some great shots of the women in the fields. The real Gambia. Breakfast included oysters in a tangy sauce freshly taken from the mangroves where they grow, Can't get better than that. Afternoon joining the dogs lazily on the beach with a couple of bulbuls singing in the palm tree just above my head. Tomorrow who knows? Somewhere but not yet sure where.

Angela TorpeyI have taught Egyptology for nearly 25 years, for 21 years with the Centre for Lifelong Learning, the University of Warwick and for just over 10 years on the internationally recognised Certificate of Egyptology (Distance Learning by e-Learning) with the University of Manchester led by Professor Rosalie David.
Because of changes to the lifelong learning programme at Warwick I now teach independently, although I also teach dayschools for the university. For nearly 20 years I have led Study Tours to Egypt both independently and as guest lecturer with Ancient World Tours. Archives
