This photo is of the "Departure" waiting room entrance; it is new and clean. This is such a contrast to the "Arrival" area of the airport. The "Arrival" area looks like it is from an era 60 years ago and that there has been no maintenance or cleaning done since. There is a screening process before entering the area; not all persons are searched or questioned. Not all baggage is searched.
When we left the terminal by bus, we crossed the airport runway to get to our plane. Notice that there is no weather protection for the passengers. But who needs it in a country where it does not rain for 9 months out of the year. Then, when it does rain, the rain stops everything; no one can travel anywhere. I doubt there are many flights out of Dakar when it is raining.
(Plans are for a trip to Tanzania this summer. Come back to join us! There will probably not be much, if any, posted until summer.)
