Sunday March 19

We have arrived in Liberia after long journey. This will be short as we will be getting up early tomorrow and I need some sleep. Nothing special about the7 hour flight from NY to Brussels, and then the 7 hour flight to Monrovia with a stop in Freetown,Sierra Leone. There was an interesting contretemps at the airport between our drivers and the guys who collect parking fees. I'm not sure if the collectors have an official job,or just do it as a freelance operation; in any case they were upset that Alvin, Dr.McDonalds driver who came to pick us up, seemingly disrespected the collector or something.

We were brought to the Murex Hotel which is a new hotel close to JFK and quite nice. We had dinner, and its now after midnight so I need to go to bed.
