Day trip to the Stilt Village of Ganvie












My work schedule is very similar to at home, including weekends. I work every other weekend, so when i have one off, Giles & I try to find day trips to go on. This weekend, we traveled by boat to the village of Ganvie. This village is on the northern tip of one of the inland lakes fed by ocean rivers. Established in the 1700's (according to our boat driver), this village survives off of the fish market. The lake, or lagoon rather, is full of nets and fish farms.
