Dakar, Senegal Day 1

We arrived in Senegal at 0630 local time. After an 8.5 hour flight we were pretty exhausted. The first thing we did was go to a boutique and order a baguette and some jelly. There are very few grocery store in Dakar. Instead, there are boutiques everywhere. Within 1/8 mile from where we were staying there were at least 3 of them.



We stayed at a guest house the first 2 days while in Senegal. It was a beautiful place right next to the ocean.

The first Senegal meal we had was Ceebu Jen which means rice and fish. It was exquisite.
