Maybe #110?

Ranked #109 of "109 Things To Do in Dakar" by Lonely Planet travelers, we nonetheless ventured into the Soumbedioune Marche aux Poissons at dusk to watch local fishers bring in the day's haul -- which can be up to 2 unregulated tons per small boat a day. 

The beach was crowded to the, er, gills, so we stayed for just a quick glimpse of colorful pirogues and slippery eels.

Eating fish gumbo for lunch today took on a whole new meaning.

Why yes, that is a box of eels.
