Buchanan

Roadside Village
Wood at the shipping yard
Large antenna in the middle of the city
The "main drag"
One day while in Cotton Tree we decided to go to Buchanan, the second largest port/city in Liberia.  You have to go through Cotton Tree to get there and we were half way there and we had the rest of the afternoon so away we went.  It was another hour past Cotton Tree making it a 2 hour trip one way.  Once out of Cotton Tree I was surprised at  how the villages along the road seemed more primitive. 

Buchanan itself is much smaller than Monrovia and not so urban.  We were not able to get very close to the actual port.  The city seems much cleaner than the rest of Liberia.
