Cotonou's Dantokpa Market is the biggest outdoor market in West Africa. It's warren of tiny crowded lanes employs thousands of men, women and children, and harbours dozens of thieves and pick-pockets. I regularly go there to find car parts and tools, and have come back unscathed so far, praise God.

Above, a hint of the size of the market.

Above, the insanely busy roads outside the market.
I thank God for John, my translator, fixer and minder. Olly
