Monrovia during the War Part 2  by Matt    4th Sep 08
This is a continuation of my city review of Monrovia. If you have seen the movie "Lord of War" or "Blood Diamond", that is what parts of Monrovia looked like when I was there. There really was a feeling of lawlessness. It was very sad to see what was going on. Teens and kids all over town with guns, families sleeping in streets because their homes were destroyed. There was a high percentage of amputees. It was devastating. The landscape and the beaches are beautiful. The people were nice, for the most part. I really think this country could have a future in tourism if they ever get their act together and stop the fighting and corruption. I know it has gotten better. I wish the people there the best of luck. I hope to travel back there soon and see Monrovia in a different light.
