Photo #20
This is a photo of John holding my youngest host brother Abderrahmane. John's wearing his holiday boubou and traditional sirwal pants (although you can't see in the picture). Abderrahmane has a diaper on for the occasion! (Diapers are really expensive -- about $1 for a diaper-shaped plastic sheet that you tie on.) Usually, he's bare-bummed, so holding him can be interesting...
