Rob flew out of Bamako last night, after an 11 day trip there. Here are my final ‘musings’ on Bamako/Mali, with four things which sum up my trip in many ways… Above are two things I liked and two which I did not: (i) I LOVED the Mercedes Benz 190 D‘s which comprise about half of the taxis in the city. Comfortable to travel in and easy to find! Here’s a climate chart for Mali (sorry it’s in Fahrenheit – unless you’re American, in which case, great!) and here’s one for Benin. It’s interesting to note that there is a greater range of temperature in Mali – the lowest temps being lower than here in Benin, but topping out at around 40C is a bit much! Thanks for reading. More Benin news in a while…

Mali looks like a really neat place, judging by the pictures you’ve been posting! That’s very interesting, too, about how different the climate is there than in Benin. A little drier and around 100F in the summer would make me feel pretty much at home! |
