Dantkopa Market






Today I went to the biggest market in West Africa, the Dantkopa Marche, with Kate. They sell everything there: goats, crabs, fish, clothes, soap, jewelry, dishes, prepared food, etc. There are people everywhere and navigating through the traffic is difficult but not as difficult as the African women balancing things on their head and walking through the crowds. We saw a women carrying a plate with a rim and the rim had clothes on hangers on it. She was a walking clothes rack. Goats were tied up together. I saw live crabs. You could live chickens. Any sort of meat you could as for. Then you can also shop for any apparel that you would want.

I wasn't able to take photos in the market because it was so crowded and I would stand out more then I already do.
