Now in Lagos

The chaps arrived an hour late blaming it on a lack of taxis at the airport and long Waits. So they got the metro in. We then took the motorway south until we turned off on to an A road to head the mountains north of Lagos. We decided to stop off for food on the way. Pulling into the first town we found we were directed to a local cafe. Very local, we were not locals. Through the cigarette smoke we saw the owner and enquired what food they have. None. Looked like the locals were just drinking coffee and smoking cigarettes.

The next town we stoped at had 2 small cafes, only one selling food. Steak sandwiches or burgers. The dubious person I am I opted for eating one of my expedition camp meals, a rather nice chilli concarni. The chaps steak sandwiches arrived and it was quite tricky working out what was bread and what was steak, it was all a sort of off yellow Colour. I ended up sharing my chilli. Before we set off we saw the next delivery of meat, whole carcassEs sitting on the back of a pick up in the heat and open air.

We then road some great twisty roads through the mountains to the hotel.
