Going to the embassy early, lots of people. 4 passport photos obligatory, we went out to make photos. After some hours waiting and filling out forms, we were told to come back the next day.
Some German guy we met there explained us how to get to a nice place to stay, run by a Swiss lady: “Chez Alice”. It was close to the beach, a little bit out of Lomé: clean, beautiful and cheap, with brilliant internet connection. They serve Swiss food (“Rösti”), also vegetarian stuff, and they have their home-made ice tea out of a local plant. Lots of dogs around, playing; cats, some monkeys; old style African furniture, masks on the wall. Gert Chesi, the famous Austrian photographer and director of the "Haus der Völker" in Schwaz, Tyrol, usually stays there, Alice showed us his books. We enjoyed the first newspapers since long, good food and friendly atmosphere.
Igor explored Lomé, I felt sick and went to bed early.
