After saving my annual leave for a whole year, I took a 2 week vacation to Nigeria and Kenya. While there, I kept a mini paper journal - something I've never done in everyday life - in order to keep track of what I was doing and document some thoughts. My goal is to now type this up so that it's accessible to me online, and perhaps to share with my family. Although my journal is relatively small, it's still a bit daunting to consider typing it's entirety, plus I'm a chronic procrastinator....thus I find myself in mid-February, a good 6 weeks post-trip, finally typing.... Enjoy.
Some background:
The trip takes place during the last 2 weeks of December 2007. The purpose of the trip is to attend Olabosipo Sawyerr's wedding in Lagos, Nigeria for the first week. My flight is from DC, layover in Amsterdam, to Lagos, along with bride's brother Akin and another friend Catherine. After the wedding, Catherine and I are continuing on to her home in Nairobi, Kenya for 1 week. I then fly home (Nairobi, layover Amsterdam, to DC) alone, while she stays on for another week before returning to DC.
