What Do You Want From Canada?

'Shoes' he says.

'What?' I say.

'Shoes' he repeats.

This surprized me as I was thinking more in the line of peanut butter or maple syrup.

I drive to the mall and buy a pair of men's shoes (more like walking sandals)in a size 45 (12 or 13).

This conversation happened one day before I left Canada. I called the Hotel to see if they had a pick up service for the Airport.

Adama Dieme the young man at the front desk at Hotel Al Baraka is very happy today.

He put the 'shoes' on right away and posed for a photo.
