Heat – more then 40 deg in the shade during the day. Cold coca-cola /225 CFA/ is like a dream. You can drink and drink… I am resting, cleaning and preparing for the next stage of my Transafricana.
The capital of the one of the poorest countries has very nice center – with fancy hotel and new government buildings.
Strong army presence – do not try to photograph the only bridge on the river. Catholic Mission near the cathedral is the best and safe escape for backpackers – they charge only 8000 CFA for twin room with shower and fan.
Tomorrow I plan to take a bus to distant Agadez /16000 CFA – air-con – what a luxury in the desert!/ – new adventures ahead!
