Destination Lagos
Austin-NYC-Dubai-Lagos
I had high hopes of travelling light this time - one rucksack and a backpack. Shoulda known. I am to carry almost one suitcase worth of stuff for the parents alone. I guess its not too bad since I will have a ton of space to bring back stuff.
It still hasn't hit me that I am going home. Am sure it will when I land at Murtala Muhammad International. Theo will be there to recieve us at 7:00 am and probably Franko too. The customs people are sure to harass us, but hopefully my pidgin will save us from having to bribe our way out. Bursting with excitement; I get to speak proper pidgin after alomost four years. Prolly take third mainland from Ikeja across the sea to the mainland, then make our way to Victoria Island. Ah its been soo long. I wanna be there already.
But alas, I have one last final to make it through. This will effectively be my last post before our journey. Godspeed and Happy Holidays!!!
Oh e Cristiano, pode falar com Almerindo que ele pode fazer a coisa o que quis fazer mais cedo, antes de minha viajem do Brasil.Ele sabe sobre que eu estou falando muito bem. Pode me mandar um email depois porfavor. Ate mais e oxiente :)
