Took a morning walk around Goulmima. Tried to make a phone call to Australia. My phone card companies number for Morocco will only allow calls to the US. I talked to customer service and they told me there was nothing that could be done. So I called their access number in the US and called from there - who knows how many satellites were involved, but the quality was horrible.
Bought a pair of "made in Goulmima" goat leather sandals to add to my collection of sandals-from-around-the-world-that-I'll-probably-never-wear. Also bought some electric supplies to fix the damage done in the other night's unsuccessful battle against the flies. Had a really beautiful walk back through the fields around the village.
Amy went off to her Berber tutor for her lesson in the local language. I sat around reading and trying to code. Had a small lunch when she got back, then when she went to teach I headed for the internet cafe. The connection is still very slow, but better than the other night - and I at least managed to read my email.
