The President is Coming to Town

Last Wednesday, the President of Gabon, Ali Bongo, paid the village of Lebamba a visit.  

I am representing Bongolo Hospital with my
Hospital polo-shirt!

What an honor to see the President so close and so willing to get out of the big city of Libreville, to visit his people in the village.

Here are his guards standing at attention waiting for him to pass by
on the red carpet.

I love the Gabonese patriotism!

On Thursday, the First Lady, came to visit the hospital.  She specifically wanted a tour of the Dental Clinic, Maternity Ward, Eye Clinic, and Pediatrics.  Everyone was in a buzz, getting the hospital in top-notch shape.  It was really fun to be a part of it!
