I turned 22... by rekamegassap

In Ouagadougou. 28 1/2 years ago, puking my guts out on rotten food I got in Bolgatanga (I think) Ghana. Survived, and I still have the carpet…Probably the most cosmopolitan location with statuesque tribesmen in the same market as almost pigmies, Catholic nuns, and French bureaucrats, all in one place.

I remember best the lunch time siesta when all motion stopped. At precisely one o’clock the city filled with the sound of mopeds running about as lunch ended – like a million mechanical bumble bees.

Alright, so a coincidence: One day after I wrote that I wanted to travel to Ouagadougou, here I am, walking down State Street, when I see that the travel agency is advertising round-trip tickets to Ouagadougou for a cool $2,337! No lie.

(Sometimes I wish I had a spare $2,337 lying around just so that I could go to a place to say that I had been there.)

I confess that I probably would not have a good time in Ouagadougou. However, I have always had an interest in Burkina Faso since the days of my childhood, when I looked at what was then “Upper Volta” on the map of Africa and wondered what it had to do with electricity.

In addition, can you imagine the postcard possibilities?

  • Greetings from OUAGADOUGOU!
  • What would you do in Ouagadougou?
  • Wish you were here… in Ouagadougou!

…and so on.
