Cotonou, Benin

Different energy in Benin vs Togo, the people were not as warm. Spent our time here walking the city, mainly the Grand Marche. The smog/smoke/dust/haze was previlent here as well. Garbage everywhere as well as the lack of waste water infrastructure. Color, sights, and sounds everywhere. Traffic was pretty much a free for all with the majority being motorcyle taxis (MotoTaxi) and scooters. We did opt for a short MotoTaxi ride, definately worth the small fare for the experience.
