Cameroon has Labor Day too. It was this past Friday and it's a national holiday so everyone has off from work and school. Limbe had a parade and all the workers from the various different companies and businesses march. Each company has there own African material which is very colorful and has the name of the companies on it and then the workers have dresses and suits made from the material. So in a way everyone matches but still everyone is wearing a different style. The streets were very lively. We went to get omlettes at Bola's (a small street cafe). We happened to meet this very nice guy from the Peace Corp who is from New Jersey! He was with two Irish friends. They were so nice and helpful. Brian the guy from Jersey has been living in Cameroon for 3 years! He told us some good weekend activities we could do so we ended up going to the beach for the rest of Labour Day and then on Saturday we climbed Mt Cameroon the tallest peak in West Africa!
