Palacina Hotel Lagos

The POGO AFRICA adventure has BEGUN! As all POGO journeys do, with a single "boing". I had to upgrade the stick with a heavy-duty spring, my good friend Jon G convinced me that I was SO FAT that I would break it if I didn't. Thanks for the sound advice, DUDE! :) ANYWAYS I arrived at the Lagos airport, the customs lady ...

We gathered our bags then five of us crammed into a car with our luggage in the trunk and on our laps and headed fro our hotel.

Our driver backed up and crossed over to the other side of the divided highway through a break in the wall and for the next few miles we drove into oncoming traffic while he flashed his headlights from low to high beam and blew his horn.

... People pressed all around and security parted the crowds as we made our way through the thick night air to waiting cars and vans; my eyes began to burn. Driving in *****ia is an int**esting adventure, even as a passeng**. Dr. BJ drove me from the airport to my hotel. I questioned him about my bags, thankfully he'd rescued them from the lobby without my notice; they w**e safely in the trunk. I was able to sit in the front seat and was treated to a sensory ...
