Marche or Market, Benin has street signs to announce as you travel a typical market, it is funny,
very modern roads,  explanations to anyone in modern terms, what a western person continually
sees as primitive, however, in reality a market is not primitive, a very complicated way or interchange

I am amiss, Africa has a lot of rain, but they do not have many umbrellas, not normal for the poorer wet countries,
I think China is falling in many ways to sell to Africa.

Waiting, these Moto Taxi drivers wanted me to take a photo and sent to them, how does one explain
this is very difficult, complicated and a never ending difficult task, I do not do for my best friends,
and to do for a person under a rain protection I met for two minutes is off the wall and not on the meter.
