Collect Experiences. Not Things. :')

Grand Popo, Benin

In Grand Popo we arranged for a village walk and then for a boat trip through the mangroves.  Both were a waste of time.  After the board ride we were offered an viewing of a traditional "voodoo" dance.  The dance was kind of interesting, even though I typically avoid traditional/folk dance performances.  Walking home, we visited a turtle "sanctuary" where we were asked to make a donation. Overall, Benin has a better idea than most west African countries, what tourists "like", however the quality of what offered is still fairly poor.
