Playing with her eyes's by antonioagui

Ziguinchor - Senegal, Ziguinchor I arrived in the capital of the Cassamance and as I walked to the center a gentle local appeared, showing me around the center, and most important introducing me to some interesting people in the town. I spent the day speaking to all kinds of people, from government and city hall workers to fishers, passing through sellers, artists, monks... At twilight we visited his friends in the outskirts of the city, in a house where alcohol was distilated ilegally. The owner was a nice woman who always smiled and walked on a wheel-chair. Her three years old daughter came in the room, where the usual customers drank and noticing me being white (she had never seen a white skined before) she was both curious and afraid. After playing with her for some minutes she never stopped smiling and obviously asked me for more and more games. She posed in all kind of postures and made gestures with her face having great fun when looking at her pictures on the camera screen. Children are our future.

That's something I learnt when I saw time ago my younger brothers doing that and asked my mother (a doctor) to tell them not to do so. Furthermore her mother told me that she liked making gestures and did that very oftenly as a game, so she wasn't doing that just because of the camera. I would hate it if it were any other way. Thanks for your comments!
