At Lamin village a band of sellers have tagged a Baobab with the coordinates of tourists willing to pay to see their contacts immortalized on this beautiful tree. It's a phone book !!!
Au fond du village de Lamin une bande de vendeurs ont tagué un Baobab avec les coordonnées de touristes prêts à payer pour voir leurs contacts immortalisés sur ce bel arbre. Il sert d'annuaire téléphonique !!!

That's an interesting taste. I am however not sure the tree really like it ;)

Bad taste and not good for the tree development ! Thanks for your reaction !

I would not have said "bad", but I in fact thought about it. "Interesting" was a politically correct way to say it ;)

Incredible tree !!!!
