Pr Abuja

... for an extra day since Chris is ill.<br><br>6th - Finally leaving Abuja and the Sh**aton Hotel, Gary is behind to pick up the visas, and we`re headed for Jos. While at Jos for a few hours I went to the Jos National Museum and the Museum of Traditional *****ian Architecture. Both w**e int**esting to wand** through. The National Museum had a large collection of pott**y, including some that are ov** 2500 years old of Nok origin. The Architecture Museum has full-scale ...

... will lit**ally just drive like crazy to get through th**e-, and lodged our Cam**oon visa applications before taking off to drive to Jos and then Yankari National Park wh**e we spent a blissful day at the Wiki Warm Springs with warm, crystal clear wat**. sadly we could not take photos as they had a cam**a fee which was ridiculously high and so we decided to just relax and enjoy and avoid the troublesome baboons that would grab your bag if it had any ...

... it is still th**e. I´ll be back to know Lagos, that's a promise. Nigéria! Para quem acompanha o blog desde o início sabe que esta s**ia uma etapa a parte, uma etapa especial da qual não sabia o que esp**ar. A viagem foi separada em 4 blocos, a Nigéria sendo o único país que por si só constituía um bloco. As suspeições tinham razão de s** e justificaram-se: a Nigéria É MESMO um país a parte. Logo aos primeiros metros (e não se trata de uma hipérbole) as autoridades nig**ianas ...

... football on his DS Lite which has definitely been worth its weight in gold. Mum is sitting in the back with us whilst S&amp;M is up front with Jay. Kristy is getting shut eye up on the beach and the rest eith** have heads in books or headphones in and eyes close. I, as usual, am typing away and begging the batt**y to keep some life as long as possible. Why laptops die so quickly I've no idea. You'd think they'd come with at least 24 hr batt ...

... the world and a p**fect hangov** cure. Anoth** increase in price was the int**net. First day we arrived we w**e told 3,000 (GBP15) for 24 hrs - expensive but do able. The next day when we inquired it had changed to 3,000 p** hour - 15 quid an hour - total extortion!! It was little Kate's birthday the day aft** the brai so we kinda celebrated it on brai night then had cake on h** actual birthday. I unfortunately was too hungov ...

... he was *n speed. Needless t* say It was hard t* sleep in this n*ise and I had t* wake up and g* and get s*me breakfast. When I g*t back at half past eleven he was still g*ing str*ng, and I th*ught t* myself: I am glad we have churches in N*rway, than we can at least ch**se t* n*t attend if we feel like it. Lat** I went t* get s*me pizza as usual. I *rd**ed a medium pizza, but just as I gave the m*ney I t*ld h**e that I wanted a large instead, as y*u get a l*t m*re pizza ...

... that I am a United support**, which is kind of nice. Guess you cannot hide away when you are the only white p**son among 500 blacks. Wednesday morning I was also in a rally against Rob**t Mugabe togeth** with Egghead, who is the lead** for the *****ian bar association. The Zimbabwean consulate is just 250 met**s from our office so I thought it would be fun to join in and do something for a good cause. We w**e not more than 70-100 people ...

... reveal my dislike of churches, when she asked if we p**haps should go to this pastors church (Thursdays at 18.00) as I always sleep on Sundays when she invites me to h** church. I have 4 eyes ayes on me, and what do I do? I collapse und** pressure and reply: Suuuure that would be... nice. So now I have a mission to get an appointment for Thursday. The question is, will I be able, or will I find my self in church for the first time in 4 years? Read the blogg on Friday and you will find out

... about this place called Abuja long t**m stay. It is pretty far away from the office, but then again, taxi is ridiculously cheap so it really doesn't matt**. So this place is 1500 naira a day instead of 3000 which I pay now. I have to admit that I like the place I'm at now, but this new place is more of a lively place, as people are staying for long** time and th**e are more students. Always good with change. On a diff**ent note, I have a standing invitation to go ...

... it before I leave. The wat** disappeared again, and it was back to the buckets, so I'm glad no one bought them from me&#9786; So, first night out in *****ia. We arranged to meet at five in a place called gardens, which was more a large plain with lots of small pubs with plastic chairs. Odewali and his two friends came pretty soon and we sat down. Odewali is just something I call him, because his nickname is Egghead, and he wanted me to call him that as well. We sat down ...
