Shopping Anyone?

















If you need a new lounge chair or sofa all you have to do is go to the furniture area of town. These shots happen to be in Duoala, but it is the same here in Yaounde. All of the furniture is made on the side of the road and then sold in the same spot. It just gets covered with plastic sheet at night and when it rains. The left shot is of wagons full of flip-flops, which are called slippers here, jelly shoes, and those plastic shoes that were popular in Colorado over the summer (the name escapes me right now). If you get thirsty while perusing the plastic junk, I mean shoes, you can get a drink from a Nescafe cart (instant coffee). Definitely not Starbucks, uhhhh, just typing it made my mouth water!
