We spent two nights at a hotel in Dakar upon arriving, taking advantage of our first days to tour the novel sights, that the country’s capital had to offer. Senegal has their own “Maison Blanche”, or White House, like we do, where President Macky Sall resides. His term has been arguably progressive with a newly instituted action plan called the PSE, Plan Senegal Emergent, which presents a structure for economic and societal development for the country, symbolized by the national colors (green *plus a star*, yellow, red) sprouting out of a cracked egg. Yes people, it’s a metaphor. And no, egg’s are not a Senegalese mascot.
