Saint-Louis, Senegal

Saint-Louis was the capital of the French colony of Senegal from 1673 until independence in 1960. From 1920 to 1957 it also served as capital of the neighbouring colony of Mauritania. So we can see that it use to be a major city. Well, after being in this city I can conclude that no maintenance has been done since the French left. And who could blame them? They need to avoid their people to die from starvation first...
I share with you a few photos of  the airport and also close by form where we stay in. Enjoy
