...Starting off with a bus trip from Rio de Janeiro to Sao Paulo to catch a plane to Dakar... to catch my next plane to Freetown, Sierra Leone! :)Promising sunset...
front view from top deck of the bus.
A very original plane shot :P (Senegal)
The rarity of yummy plane food!
Same place first landed in Africa 5 yrs ago!
...without them I would have to spend 28 hrs in a horrid airport till my next flight!
I had a great stopover, Senegalese seafood, new friends, and stayed in a beautiful house...
(And they EVEN had the same book I was reading lying around!)
Time to get moving again...
Once you arrive at the Sierra Leone National Airport you'd think all is over...
...Wrong again! You still need to get across the bay by boat, helicopter or hevercraft .
(if it's working) ...That's me in the chopper :D!
(if it's working) ...That's me in the chopper :D!
Yes! Finally made it!!!
(And what do you know- My creole still works enough to blend in and not get ripped off like a 'JC' :P)
More pics coming soon!
