To say that travel in Monrovia is an adventure is quite the understatement! Traffic, potholes – some the size of a small car, no road at all, 2 lanes that are turned into 6, 7 or even 8 lanes of traffic, people everywhere, hawkers selling their products while playing frogger in the traffic, and… well, surely you get the picture. Or maybe you don’t.
How about this one…
Yes, that is a coffin in that small car! Someone is being taken to their final resting place – no ropes, no tie-downs – just sitting there, hanging out.
If you think I was surprised to see this, you are mistaken. The first time I saw a car with a coffin in it I was surprised. Not any longer – I have sort of grown accustomed to the site. In town, up country, on the highway, in the bush – I have seen this many times.
You just never know what you will see!
