travel notes from nigeria: day 1.
i made the mistake of forgetting to bring my immunization card with me this trip. that lead to my first shakedown attempt approximately 37 seconds after landing in Lagos. "no card, you cannot enter," he said. i said ok, i will turn around and go back on the next flight." long stare. waved me through.
me 1, nigeria 0. but its still early in the game.
i won't mention how my friend/colleague who is also here decided it would be a good idea for us to go for a run through the streets of Lagos, so he bolted out the gate of the hotel and had me chase after him. at 7pm (ie almost dark). and both with Iphones strapped to our arms.........i kept going for about 1/4 mile and turned back...
and did i mention it is "Russia Night" at the luxurious Eko Hotel Lagos? This much fun in the hands of one man. i am embarrassed and humbled........
