Abomey, Benin.
Half awake, lookin’ for momma, outta milk, hungry and wanting some cereal…
This little girl would wander into the compound of our hotel just about every morning around eight. Her mother was our cook during our stay at Chez Monique in Abomey, Benin. This little one wanted breakfast, and didn’t care where she had to find mom to get it. By the third day we would have a bowl of cereal waiting for her, as her mother did the big inhale, and all the other workers laughed and slapped their thighs. This girl wasn’t shy. She was hungry…

Thanks for the comments afewclicks …no, not really a big B&W fan …mostly because I don’t have the software to convert it properly …this one may be a good choice to do so though.
Thanks again,
John

Hi John,
Fair enough. I think the picture works really well in colour too. It was just a thought!! You probably know but if you want an idea Picassa (from Google) is free to download and is really quick and easy! Will keep following the blog!
