Nice one Red. Looks like he's starting to attach himself to this baby more and more. Isn't that sweet?
Awwww........ |

Well, there is a Harp3r in M4ryl4nd County Liber!4 so it's possible. And this is according to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harper%2C_Liberia :
Quote: |
Magnificent unexploited beaches stretch for miles on both sides of Harper and warm waters all the year round .Fish in abundance, whales, dolphins and huge oysters. Fanti Canoes sail from Harper to Monrovia via Greenville.This trip can take from 3 to 6 days depending on the wind and weather. A UN ship sails fortnightly between Harper and Monrovia. From Ivory Coast, Harper is easily accessible from Tabou. |
3 to 6 more days in a boat to get to his baby!? |

I just read this wonderful report about H4rper from a seasoned traveller:
Quote: |
This same day I crossed to Liberia and rested in a place that I will never forget: H4rper. I arrived there suffering sunstroke and lay in a mattress under a fan to sleep for a whole day; I vomited even the water
that I swallowed. When I woke up I was hungry but in the kiosks of H4rper there was nothing to eat except canned sardines and eggs. The weekly truck to Monrovia was within four days. There was no other transport, I had to wait 4 days in H4rper eating sardines and omelettes. One day, when going to buy a beer, the seller, a young boy, started to shout: �the seven seconds! The seven seconds!...�, and run away. Then I noticed a slim green snake. Besides there was a broom, I took it and killed the snake of three strokes. I called the boy telling him that it was a very small snake, he was not a child anymore and did not need to shout so loud. The boy then explained me that this snake is very poisonous, and it is called the seven seconds because when it bites you, you count: one, two, three, four, five, six, and after seven, you die. Feeling myself a hero I invited to beers the parents of the boy and the chief of H4rper.
When the truck arrived I was the first to board it, and when we left H4rper, I did not risk looking back for fear to get transformed into a salt statue. In every military control the government soldiers first, and the revolutionary guerrilleros next a few kilometres further, tried to get money from me, being European, but, apart from the first two or three times that I gave some 1 dollars notes, and invited to some drinks to the officials, during the rest of my journey to Monrovia I refused, without consequences. After three days and three nights of agonic travel in that truck first and in old jeeps later through earthen roads with enormous holes everywhere and without asphalt, and many times rowing because there are very few bridges in Liberia, I arrived to Monrovia |
Sounds like fun! |

DRC also informed the forum that it has opened an Internet caf� in Harper, Maryland that allows local people to access and send out information for a minimum service fee of 10 Liberian dollars (18 US cents). The money is being used to support the office of the Harper City Mayor. |

Thanks TFI!
That's fantastic... it's amazing how much you learn about Africa when you send a lad on a nice trip. If he makes it to Monrovia in one piece I think HE deserves a pith . |

Thanks for that Josh!
Yes, it really does look like a lovely place to spend a week or so doesn't it?
I do hope he enjoys the journey there. I'm keeping very silent on him right now, so I don't have anything new for you guys, but I'll probably send him a reply tonight (AUS time) just to let him know I'm still searching. |

If you have google earth Red I seriously suggest you have a good look at Monrovia on it. The image I posted above is merely one little bit of what has to be the most disorganised urban areas I have ever seen. I doubt there are streets, let alone street numbers, throughout much of the city. You can send your lad anywhere and he's going to have a mission finding it. |

Thanks Josh, yeah I've had a look on google earth and it's a rather unfortunate place by the looks of things. He'll get a nice tour though .
Here is my latest email to him, he has been silent, so he might be travelling:

Hi baby
I am finding it really hard to get on the internet here, they don't understand me very well and it is not safe for me here, some men tried to hurt me the other day and I had to run to the police who then said they would look after me but then tried to make me pay them! I didn't have any money of course so they kicked me to the street, but it is ok, because the baby and I are ok. I am still searching but I need your help, it is hard here, I don't know what is going to happen, luckily the ship is letting me sleep on board but they will leave soon and I am not sure what to do. I need you here with me now, I miss you baby, I am crying every night and I just wish I were in your arms with you to protect me and love me. Please come for me soon I love you so much.
Love

Things are not looking good for our lass. |

^^^ I'm not sure Josh, I guess it would depend on when the next transport was leaving h4rp3r when he arrived. He might have been lucky and got there with good timing and hopped on the next day... or he might be stuck there for a few days. It'll take him anywhere from 4 days to a week to get to Monrovia, so right now we can just sit back and wait. Hopefully he'll get my email and update us all soon. Of course... he might have been kidnapped by rebels... |

You have any number of options once you confirm he's in Monrovia. It all depends on when and how you want to leave him in the lurch. |

Ok guys and girls nothing much going on. I sent the lad a response yesterday saying:

Baby
Where are you? Things are happening here. I don't have much time to talk, I am really worried, immigration officals came to the ship today and there was lots of shouting and the captain got punched by one of the guys in uniform, i was so scared. You said you would be here hours ago and you're still not here, where are you?! I have to go, the captain is calling all the crew together soon he has something he needs to tell us, must be important.
Love |
Now, the lad was supposed to arrive over a day ago... his "12 hour" journey has now turned into a 24 hour journey and I still haven't heard from him. He may have been eaten by something or someone... |

Tell him you found the container but before you could get the jewels it was loaded onto another ship. You were able to get a berth on that ship for the same cleaning/favors arrangement and will be leaving in 5 minutes on the way to ----------------------- (fill in horrible African port of your choice)
Lets see how long he will follow you! |
