Dear Mom and Dad,

Nigers atmosphere is much nicer and officials are friendly and helpful.  Agades is hot and dusty and very tourist conscious.  Much prefer to be in open country.
Love, Dave.

Tahoua is a city in Niger with a population of 99,900 (2004). The city is primarily a market town for the surrounding agricultural area, and a meeting place for the Tuareg people from the north and the Fulani people from the south. Phosphates and gypsum are mined there as well.
