Dakar: In Pictures

Surprised how many men (never once a woman) exercise in Dakar,
you always see them running down the streets and beaches, plus
there are many places for push ups, pull ups, and other calisthenics

Ile de Goree, the hauntingly beautiful island where people were held

before being sent across the Atlantic and sold as slaves

One of the rooms where people were held,
after being sorted by sex, age, temperament, and health

Three men walking down the disturblingly pleasant avenues of
Ile de Goree, which is also a pedestrian only island

Kids on the ferrry. They saw the camera and
went nuts asking me to take their picture.

The scene on the beach in Dakar

Once again, you see all the young men exercising.
Here the row of them are doing pushups in the sand.
