course, the infamous Goree Island! Who comes in Senegal without coming ashore here at least one after-noon? I've been there 2 times, with Siga that has ns negotiate the fare, and a day with a group of Lille encountered in training. The only problem: the passage by boat (mini-ferry to get there) = 5000CFA each time to strangers! (8 €), whereas it is 1500 for the "residents". C too bad, although I'd go back full time to buy a lot of pictures or jewelry, MS c a little frustrating to extend every time, knowing kon is for the whole summer, internship, students, but non was not entitled to the resident rate c not fair.
The crossing takes 30 minutes to get on and off the boat c pretty funny, do not be afraid of falling into the water because there is no bridge, we must jump on the pier and under the waves there may be 1m away! On the other side of the boat docked, young Senegalese arrived in swimming, beckoning tourists toubabs launch their parts, they will recover function of the water!
You arrive on a beach or when there is music, lots of kids playing ds and water dancing to the beat of mbalax ... Then you sink ds
small streets of the island : No car horns, street vendors (few women selling their necklaces gonna ms), just small streets paved or gravelled of 2-3m wide, houses red, yellow, full of trees flowers ttes colors. A bougainvillea (big tree with red flowers) planted in the center of the island in the middle of the square. A football field ... hmm let's say improvised: the wall of one side of the field, and a tree planted in the middle, participate in the Game! We came upon a match, a sacred atmosphere! A Lille: "Wow g pdt played 15 years in football, well, it has never cheered ns ca kan kom we scored a goal!"
A path that climbs to the top of Long Island sellers of paintings all + beautiful than the others (LMES tables, not the sellers !!!).. you start to haggle dry tt finally the world is back with his picture, tt smile!

ago the House of Slaves there ... vestige of the horrors that occurred there: The island of Gorée was formerly an area of 'storage' and transit of slaves. Ns ds guide explains what conditions they were held here. Horrible. Ah yes, so we found a rooftop swimming pool, atop the hotel
Independence (on place of 
same name) 
downtown with views across Dakar. We can go to 3000CFA (1 conso included) and, c foot. It was all alone with Mathilde, the impression of being on top of the world, nobody come pr bored (just the server brings you your ki hibiscus juice and try to do some gringue, nothing really bad !)
