A room with a view

Here's a view from the office, from the 10th floor (penthouse!). It's one of the taller buildings in the area, at the busy intersection of Mechlin and Broad Streets. Outside it's bussling with people, sitting, walking, driving, selling clothes, shoes, random items. Music filtres up from the street through the windows, loud enough sometimes that it feels like it's coming from within the office - the 10th floor office.

There's air conditioning in the office; something I hadn't actually expected. Outside it's hot and muggy and 30 degrees. Within it gets cold enough at times that I need some extra layers (you know me and the cold).

As you can probably tell by the picture, Monrovia lies on the coast, at Cape Mesurado. There's the Atlantic Ocean on one side, and the Mesurado River along another. Broad Street is one of the busiest streets in the city, to the west of here is Mamba Point, where the US Embassy is (formerly the British Embassy), while to the east there is Capital Hill where most of the government buildings are located, and a bit further, Sinkor.
