A special occasion
My boss invited me to the meeting Sectoral education officials attended by the governor of the region, the regional delegate of Education, the departmental delegates, inspectors, etc., all of the high hierarchy what!
In Cameroon, the protocol is of paramount importance. The Governor arrives, the silence is required and all rise to greet him. The national anthem is sung and speeches succeed though few listened.
The topic on the agenda: the evaluation of teaching and level of preparation for exams, the subject speaks volumes about the progress in education. Long and boring presentations that follow fail to capture the attention of the audience.
I consider myself privileged to attend, however this large meeting to observe the senior Cameroonian at work.
costs end up saying things in a heated debate or protectionism, corruption, lack of enforcement are spread out in the open but ... they are not highlighted in the report.
I wanted to know other cultures and this meeting has shown me a different side of Cameroon. Forty

Living more than 40 degrees is seeking the energy level body from dawn to dusk. The moisture of the skin is guaranteed when it is not the sweat that trickles continuously. Under the sun is untenable.
Water is the best drink and it is essential to our continued vitality, if vitality is still possible ... It heats
as say the Cameroonian while heating: the walls are as hot as a stove was so close, you might think that the dishes out of dishwasher and laundry from the dryer. The bed, chairs, couch give the impression they are heated. When traveling on a motorcycle, feeling the wind on the skin is comparable to that of receipt of the air a hair dryer running. It's so hot that even the air conditioning will not work because the electricity is not strong enough to start the engine.
The house offers a haven more acceptable mattresses and sheets are moved outside to enjoy the semblance of cool (30-35 degrees at night). At 4:45 am, the call to prayer is heard to tell us that it is preferable, despite the heat, back inside before sunrise.

Which Silk Saree Shop Is Best In Chennai
Oh yes!
Waza Safari Park was good but it left me a little about my appetite. So the heart filled with hope that I left for the park Bouba Ndjida. Marcel was on him that it was expensive and far. And yes, another 3 hours and 7 hours by bus 4X4; gone only a trot. The journey begins with a night of rest in a Catholic mission in Garoua, our favorite place to sleep because it is much cheaper than hotels and always clean.
We do brewing in the 4x4 but the arrival in the park soon reconciles us with the inconvenience. Upon entry, antelopes frolicking merrily we welcome in. Some names to expand your knowledge zoological: Red-flanked Duiker, Oribi, Bushbuck, reedbuck, kob, waterbuck waterbuck, démalisque, hartebeest. There are also hippotraques (horse antelope), buffalo, giraffes, elephants. How lucky they are to go except the giant eland and the Panthers.
This time I really feel on an African safari, we are 4x4 and I sit right with the tracker on the roof. As atmosphere is totally different. I see everything, my adventurous side was filled and I have a bonus course on zoology animal park in private. Wow!
