1-10 St. Louis, Senegal St. Louis (SallooEE) has been the capital of Senegal and Mauritania. My travelmate, Ed Schmidt, knew French people who once had a place there. He figured they must've had a reason, so we went. | |
1-2 Looking up. | |
1 La Louisiane: where we stayed, by the bay; interesting proprietor; definitely go there. | 2 Excellent interior balcony, part of a signposted self-tour. |
3-4 La plage. What two things do you find on the beach? Goats? Soccer? Correct. | |
3 Grazing goats: nothing quite like a plastic bag for lunch. | 4 Le foot: soccer on the beach. |
5-8 The streets of St. Louis contain people who are often poor and buildings that are often colorful. | |

7 Colors; courtyards not shown. | 8 Caleche, pour les touristes. |
9-10 What two things do you expect to find in town? | |
9 The Grue: once a mover of heavy things, it now sits there, waiting for admiration. | 10 Palme d'or (so to speak), lit, at night, in a park. |
