I was still sick as a dog when we arrived in Segou. I was well into my extended hunger strike (anything that went in came out in liquid form within an hour or so). So the only thing that interested me was beer. Lots and lots of beer. Luckily the hotel was well-stocked with beer and I was well satisfied. Most Malians are muslim and do not partake of any alcohol. But our guide Boubacar (showing his back here) is Dogon. The Dogon like their beer. So we had a nice time with Boubacar at the bar and were able to buy him several beers to show our gratitude at his excellent guiding through the Dogo Country.
Otherwise, the hotel had minimalist rooms. A bed, a light, a 5 inch tv that received fuzzy reception from one station showing football 24/7, and a bathroom (of sorts).
