Day28 コトヌー・グランポポの遊び方 Cotonou and Grand-Popo

ベナン2日目
The 2nd day in Benin

今までのようにどこにでもWifiがあるわけではないので

There is no wifi everywhere like developped countries.

まずはコトヌーでSIM探し

I look for a SIM in Cotonou before leaving.

隊員ドミトリー⇔事務所間にできたMTN（通信会社）

There is a new MTN store which they didn't have 5 years ago.

身分証明としてパスポートを提出する

I handed in the passport as an ID to employee.

コピー機がないので必要な情報を紙に書き写している

He started to copy it by hand because they don't have a copy machine.

こりゃ1時間コースだなと思っていたら

I suspected that it would take more than one hour.

なんと15分で手続き終わった！しかも100F！

However, it's done within 15minutes and costs 100F.

道端のおばちゃんからもSIM買えますが、

We can buy SIM cards at the store on the road, but it costs 1000F,

1000Fするらしいので店舗に行くとよいでしょう

so it's better to go to the branch store.

そして朗報！あのガタガタ・ぐちゃぐちゃの道がキレイになってる！

And what's new is that the bumpy road became proper completely.

道の状態によっては2～3時間かかっていたところが1.5時間でグランポポに到着

It took only 1.5hours wich is of course faster than before and I got off at Grand-Popo.

腹ペコだったので目に入った屋台にかけこむと

I was starving and I just ran into the stall infront of me.

なんとなんとずっと仲良くしてくれていたおばちゃん！
It was a lady who was very kind to me at that time.

以前と売る場所を変えたらしく、たまたま出会えたー

She has changed a place of stall and we just bumped into each other.

昼ご飯を買おうとすると「食べなよ」と無料で食べさせてくれて感動

When I ordered lunch, she just gave it to me for free. How nice.

腹ペコだったので「パット」に「魚」と「モロヘイヤ」のトッピング

I had a "PATE", "fish", and "mulukhiya."

おばちゃんはあまり変わらないけど、

The lady haven't changed alot, but

5年が経ち小学生たちは高校生になり、

after five years, the elementary students became a high school student and

高校生だった子はもう子供ができいろんな変化がありました

the high school student became an adult who has a baby.

今日はひとまず日本人用の空き家に転がり込み就寝

It was fun to see the change after five years.
