We (Sr. Jerolin, driver John-Paul, and myself) left St. Padre Pio Hospital (in Douala, where we spent the night), at 5am - not a huge inconvenience for me, as I was up at 3:30am, thanks to the 9 hour time difference. Due to our early departure, we agreed to eat breakfast on the road.
They mentioned a name, but it didn't ring any bells. I was very pleasantly surprised when, an hour and a half after leaving, John-Paul stopped at my favorite roadside fruit stand! While we made our purchases, we were treated to a breakfast of fresh pineapple and papaya by the proprietor.
This, friends, is the beauty of Cameroon - fresh produce, generosity, and friendship.
