wide load Camel and a sign

First time out with our very own car yesterday. I’ve seen people carry all kinds things on motorcyles here, armloads of rebar, jerry cans of water? fuel? I mean any minute of the day you will see someone go down the street with something surprisingly inappropriate on a motorcycle. But yesterday I saw the prize winner: two guys on a motorcycle carrying a sofa on their heads.

Why I’m afraid to drive:

and what does this sign mean? In four minutes you’ll lay an egg?

    My guess… is that a roundabout is coming up?
    Yeah, the motos in Togo carried everything, from a family of 6 to guys holding huge TVs off the side. Frightening. You all are lucky to have the camels though, they are such neat creatures. Here in India, it’s cows and bull carts. Whee.
