Trip to Mission Sainte-Anne in Fernan Vaz (GABON)
The church was designed and built by Gustave Eiffel in Paris and transported in pieces to St. Anne where it was built in 1889. It is a mixture of color and visual contrasts. The dark rust color and simple silhouette of the church nestled in the green palm trees make it worthwhile to visit, be it only for the opportunity of taking a photo. Located off the beaten track on the edge of a lagoon, visitors who approach by the river have their first glimpse of the Mission by the church spire rising above the canopy. One is immediately struck by the surrounding atmosphere of peace and tranquility due in part to the isolation of the site.

Gamba to Setta Cama
Video taken on the ride from the town of Gamba to Setta Came from where we entered the Loango National Park. The road was sandy and pretty much impassable without a 4 wheel drive.
Allons à Gamba en 2min 40
#Gamba est une petite ville du Gabon située sur la baie sud de la lagune Ndougou. Son nom est tiré du Lumbu « N´gamb » qui veut dire brouillard.
La région est peuplée par des autochthons #Lumbus (Ba-lumbu / pluriel, Mu-lumbu / Singulier ).
Il convient de noter que les Lumbus à l'origine ne sont pas de l'Ogooué-maritime. Ils sont exclusivement originaires de la région de la #Nyanga au Gabon.
Historiquement, le département de #Ndougou appartenait à la région de la Nyanga sud-ouest, limitrophe de celle de l'Ogooué-maritime.
Pour des raisons politiques internes au Gabon, elle a été rattachée à celle de l'Ogooué-maritime quelques années, juste après la découverte du premier puits de pétrole « Gamba 1 » en 1963
À #Gamba, la plupart des gens vivent au cœur de la ville, divisée en cinq blocs appelés « Plaines » d'autres sont dispersés dans de petits villages autour de la lagune de #Ndougou et du lac Yenzi

Gabon is a country in Western Central Africa. It lies on the Equator, on the Atlantic Ocean coast, between the Republic of the Congo to the south and east, Equatorial Guinea to the northwest and Cameroon to the north.
A small population, as well as oil and mineral reserves have helped Gabon become one of Africa's wealthier countries. The country has generally been able to maintain and conserve its pristine rain forest and rich biodiversity.
Understand[edit]
History[edit]
The earliest inhabitants of the area were Pygmy peoples. They were largely replaced and absorbed by Bantu tribes as they migrated.
In the 15th century, the first Europeans arrived. The nation's present name originates from Gabão, Portuguese for cloak, which is roughly the shape of the estuary of the Komo River close to the capital of Libreville. French explorer Pierre Savorgnan de Brazza led his first mission to the Gabon-Congo area in 1875. He founded the town of Franceville, and was later colonial governor. Several Bantu groups lived in the area that is now Gabon when France officially occupied it in 1885.
In 1910, Gabon became one of the four territories of French Equatorial Africa, a federation that survived until 1959. These territories became independent on August 17, 1960.
Since independence, Gabon has been one of the more stable African countries. Autocratic President Omar Bongo was in power from 1967 until his death in 2009. Gabon introduced a multiparty system and a new constitution in the early 1990s that allowed for a more transparent electoral process and for reforms of governmental institutions. A small population, abundant natural resources, and considerable foreign support have helped make Gabon one of the more prosperous sub-Saharan African countries. Despite being made up of more than 40 ethnic groups, Gabon has escaped the strife afflicting other West African states.
Climate[edit]
Tropical; always hot, humid. During the months of June to September, the climate is a little cooler (20-25°C).
Terrain[edit]
Narrow coastal plain; hilly interior; savannah in east and south. Highest point is Mont Iboundji at 1,575 metres.
Important holidays[edit]
Independence Day: 17 August 1960 (from France)
National holiday: Founding of the Gabonese Democratic Party (PDG), 12 March (1968)

Soiree Africaine (Gamba, Gabon) 1996
Soiree Africaine 1996 filmed 26th & 27th of July 1996 at Circle Culturel de Plaine 3 in Gamba, Gabon.
Gabon and Lobe National Park
I didn't think I'd make it into Gabon after my time in Yaounde at their terrible embassy, but after getting a visa with ease at the border (as seen in the last episode) I'm here. The truth is, this country has such brilliant potential. The scenery is unbelievable, there is money here in the oil and timber industry, and there is wildlife as well.
However, despite a couple fun days in Gabon with a Dutch couple I met on the road, I quickly grew to despise Gabon. The people here were the least friendly I met in all of Africa, they seemed to resent me being in their country. Moreover, well at the pride and joy of Gabon tourism, Lope National Park, we learned how unprofessional they can still be when it comes to business.
Gabon, thus far has been so insanely frustrating but mostly due to the fact that it has so much potential, but the people don't seem to care even the slightest about the tourists that come here hoping to explore.
There are many places I'd rather see develop a tourism in West and Central Africa. And it annoys me to no end that the one country in the region that has the money, stability, and the natural blessings is completely neglecting it.
Anyways, rant over. After this episode I roll on towards the town of Franceville as I have to catch the train since there is no fuel left in the town of Lope. Stay tuned.
