    I live close to the monument and I took the same way you took to the monument the last time I went home. Welcome to Senegal bro and it is interesting to see a brother from America go visit Africa. More black people should go visit Africa. It's a learning experience. There are many more places and nice beaches to see not only in Dakar but in the countryside. The weather is cool in Dakar in January February and Mars for people who want to avoid the heat in the summer time which is from June July all the way to November

    2:37 the place he went to for lunch right next door of it it’s a ice cream shop called Blanche Neige. To me it’s one of the best in Dakar flavor wise, it’s not that fancy fancy as other ice cream shop in Dakar. It’s also the cheapest like 500cfa (.85 cents) per scoop and other ice cream shops starts at a 1000cfa. It’s good if you want some good ice cream and is on a budget or have many children.

    I felt like Dakar was a scam. All of these people praised it and it was not at all what they said. I loved the beautiful men I met there but that’s about it. The air quality was the worst, it was compelled chaos and inefficient. Decent food is way over priced. Everything else is super processed crap. And 80% of the city is a construction project that no one bothered to finish. And the music and dance scene is dead. It wasn’t what I expected at all.
    Yeah and it’s super hot and no one selling anything to drink. It doesn’t go down like that in Colombia, Mexico, Costa Rica, etc.
