Day 104: Wednesday 16 February 2011. Presbyterian Synod Office, Buea, Cameroon  N04 09.692  E009 13.973 Distance driven 0 km
 
At dawn it was so cool that I actually put on a sweater.  We caught up on Internet, Jenny worked all day and I went exploring Buea, lunching on delicious chicken brochettes and fried plantain with a spicy peanut sauce and a large cool beer.
 
In the evening we met up with one of Jenny's clients who took us out to a local Cameroonian restaurant where we had delicious roasted fish, again with plantains.
 
This camp site is on a hillside, overlooking a large boy's boarding school and we are awakened at 0530 each morning as they perform their ablutions outside in the dark with much banging of steel buckets, followed by a series of very loud clanging bells for breakfast, chapel etc.  All this before my normal getting up time of 0630!
