Shopping in Dakar

The marché Sandaga was a delightful place to shop. The central market (inside the building) was surrounded by many small shops and vendors who clustered in the area.

The Tailor's shop	The Silversmith

Fur sandals!	Kola nuts--hot items on a Sat. night, since they were reputed to be powerful aphrodisiacs!

Fresh fruits and veggies	Religious items for sale outside the mosque This man did not want me to take his picture because he thought that my camera would "steal" his soul. I only learned this after I snapped the picture and he came tearing after me. From then on, I asked FIRST and then took the picture!
