Walking around northern Dakar

Some photos from my walk from the northern suburbs into the posh central neighborhood of Point E.

At top is a view of the street where the office is located, in a northern neighborhood called Mermoz. Not sure what the picture of the shrimp signifies.

Next is a quintessential Dakar scene: a horsecart on the main road, followed closely by a bulldozer headed to one of the city's ubiquitous construction sites.

Below is a street in Point E, home of Dakar's best outdoor music cafes, in addition to the Syrian Embassy and the West Africa Reuters bureau.

At bottom, a huge baobab tree shelters a bus station.
