Déjà vu

Déjà vu: Harmattan hauled at Curacao Marine and me traveling to other parts of the world.





Yaoundé, Cameroon. Single-carriageways turn into dual-carriageways and eventually traffic gets completely stuck at the next junction. Probably the most challenging requirement of driving in Yaoundé is to be able to keep your calm, specifically when taxi drivers filter in and out while carefully ignoring you.

However, just outside the city you’ll find lush green forest and fresh air.



The beautiful and impressive entrance of Cameroon’s National Museum.  Strict rules apply with regards to taking photographs: inside it simply prohibited. Outside, in the blazing sun, you are allowed to take only one - without using your flash! A guide is compulsory and visits are supposed to be completed in approximately one hour. I failed to inquire about the existence of the ‘Friends of the National Museum’ foundation.
