This week I had the chance to visit Kinshasa again, to attend the International Women's Club there, and with me went Gail, former president of that very club. It was great fun to visit there with her, we met up with some of her old friends, and she took me to a wonderful place, Galerie Symphonie Des Arts, a fabulous garden, art shop, coffee shop and dance/exercise studio, all run by Christa, a German woman who has lived there for years, and her daughter.
Here is a crested crane, and Christa with a parrot on her arm.
I have been doing some painting in oils with a small group of "girls", and yesterday we went on a sortie, took our gear and worked beside the River Congo. Here we are hard at work under the direction of Beatrice, our dear and talented directrice.
