Arrival in Yaounde!

After about two full days of travelling, we finally made it to Cameroon last night. We had a 6 hour layover in Paris, so we decided to take full advantage of that situation to explore the city a bit. After trying unsuccessfully to navigate the bus system out of the airport, we found a guy to drive us into the city-- right to the Eiffel Tower!! We then walked all the way to the Louve and then to Notre Dame. A full tour in just two hours! Then it was back to the airport and time to get on with the journey. We were able to meet with Mr. Moukam and Olivia today before going shopping for suppplies, so hopefully we will be able to track down the solar panels tomorrow. Wiring may prove to be a problem, but we haven't given up yet! Talk to you more later!
