Chicken Invaders Pelna Wersja

Benin Abomey and Aplahoué

Bon que nous est-il arrivé ces derniers jours outre l’inondation et la voiture qui apprend à nager.
Nous sommes donc arrivées mardi matin à Abomey. L’équipe était là. Enfin le gestionnaire nous dit qu’il est libre qu’une journée car après il va former les gens de la zone sur le logiciel Médistock (j’ai travaillé en fin de journée avec lui sur le logiciel et bien j’en connaissais plus que lui et il était incapable de répondre à la moindre question un peu pharmaceutique : comment le logiciel calcule les paramètres de gestion pharmaceutique… c’est grave quand même quand on pense que c’est un formateur…). Well we must go faster ... We continue to work the following days without the manager. A little hard to get all the documents we want, but after four days we're getting there!! The depot building is a classic built by the state. This deposit is "helped" by a program that buys drugs they sell and where they deposit money into a special account for future hospital zone. A little complicated especially since it gives them an astronomical stock (81000000 FCFA stock on the last inventory cons about 20 to 30 million for other deposits). Otherwise, the coefficient is applied 1.1 According to "a ministerial directive" that we have still not found ??!!! The arrangement of the store is apocalyptic, the stock cards are just the great anything. The deposit has no financial autonomy vis-à-vis the area.

Abomey was the city mother and father of Eric, our driver. He showed us all the palaces of the city (we make our selection of holiday visit to our small personal July) and we collect information from static guides ... (Benin expression to describe the information boards ... lol). We meet the "princes" of Abomey ... you tell me I believe that all people are princes of the city ... in fact with kings who had more than 100 children it makes them descendants ...

Friday 25 we had the meeting with the responsible actions at PISAF pharmaceutical stores. Interview that lasted 3:30 ... very informative and professional as we have shown that we mastered our subject! When you think they work in the pharmaceutical field and there is not even a pharmacist in the program ...

We used to be Bohicon to visit the archaeological site was discovered when Agongointo underground dwellings. Visit super cool. Not afraid to descend into a black hole. In any case, they were ingenious these Beninese. These houses were invisible from the outside (in = 80cm diameter hole hidden by plants) and allowed the soldiers to let the enemy to take them back ... too much!
Well after that was out of masks and snorkels
We'll explain.
At the end of the visit the rain started, a crazy thing ... never seen it ... We were Bohicon and had returned to Abomey about 10 minutes drive. AND there on the road we were blocked by a car crash ... and the rising water that rises ... on the road (within 5 minutes the water rose 5 cm easy ...) we had until the driver door ... not even panic when the engine was nearly drowned really like ... on TV when you see the cars in the floods ... short we still arrive at the hotel and there ... there is a water leak in the chamber (sab cases have taken nothing but water damaged ... OUF) ... So here we are change rooms in torrential rain ... We arrived in our new room ... and there the water rising outside. Only one step of 10cm of water protects us ... we'll be flooded?? We follow the case close ... But no rain fell, water has passed and we were able to sleep peacefully ...

The next morning as a gesture commercial hotel offered us a breakfast omelet with Royal and fresh pineapple juice in addition to the usual bread, butter and coffee ....

Sunday we took a guide for visiting artists Abomey (traditional and contemporary) as well as learn about the history of the Amazons. Well the visit began somewhat laboriously. 1hr to tell the story of Abomey we already knew, without story and a way quite soft and very very slow ... I thought it was Sab partir en courant…
Bon heureusement il s’est rattrapé par la suite. Il ne nous a rien appris sur les amazones mais nous a fait découvrir un vannier, la distillation du sodabi, la fonte des ferronniers, la confection des toiles d’Abomey (avec Baba, un VRAI vieux artisan à qui nous avons acheté des Toiles à un prix très correct…), les plasticiens d’aujourd’hui…bref de belles découvertes et de futurs talents.

Lundi lever à 5h45 pour Sab (moi j’ai pu grappiller 30min de sommeil en plus) car nous voulons être à 8h30 à Aplahoué et selon Eric nous avons 1h30 de route…donc départ à 7h avec p’tt dej à l’hôtel to 6h30.Bref we leave ... and 43min later we arrived ... Uh ... there's a problem of estimating the travel time, is not it?? When we ask the evening to Eric why he thought that the trip lasted 1:30, he tells us "ben I purposely say 1:30 instead of 45 min .." uh ... here we do not understand the joke ...
In short, the team filed Aplahoué was already there and fully available (a chance). We worked well with them. But managing the filing has nothing pharmaceuticals. No calculation of stock management settings (orders are placed at random !!!), Documents are not sorted or classified. They apply a coefficient of 1.02 in fact, theoretically because they sell the bulk at the same price as the blisters so the real margin is 1.07 (the health area supports all the expenses of filing). And they want to move to a margin of 1.1 but with no justification (or other operating costs ...) just by what they heard that other deposits applied this coefficient. In addition, the accounting is accounting that is not an accountant! There are still reviewing notions ... but otherwise they are nice

Last night we ate a good chicken Yassa with small sautéed vegetables ... it changes the rice / cheese
Tomorrow, go to Lokossa with the departmental health of the Mono-Couffo then sleep in Cotonou before leaving for the week to Porto Novo for the last 2 deposits.
Yesterday afternoon, we made a picnic royal sandwich block / pickles, sandwich and then laughing cow pot of sauce ... it makes you dream?? Not we ??!!!! yes Ben! It admits the French meal we lack a bit ...
