Departing Port Harcourt
September 15, 2018 in Nigeria ⋅ ☁️ 22 °C
Was woken up by the alarm I set on my phone at 5:00am. Felt very lazy and didn’t get off the bed till 5:30am.

Taxi to the airport arrived at 6:35am. Left the house at 7:06am after installing scrabble dictionary and Maiguard on Imaobong’s laptop which I plan to use on the trip. My old Sony laptop is no longer reliable and doesn’t come on most of the time. Arrived at the airport 30 minutes later.

My Arik Air flight took off shortly after 9:00 am, arrived Lagos at 10:08 am. Had brunch at Bukha restaurant outside MMA2 before calling for a Taxify which took me to Citiheight.
Took a short nap, showered and ordered late lunch at 4:30 pm. Checked out a few minutes after 6 pm, and took an Uber to the international airport, arriving before 7 pm. Check in was smooth and quick.Read more

Day 1
The Genesis of an African Odyssey
November 1, 2017 in Nigeria ⋅ ⛅ 24 °C
I had just gone through a major life changing experience and needed to de-stress, what better way to do this than to relax on a beach over a long weekend. I had heard of the lovely beach in Gambia from colleagues who visited some time back. Gambia is well known as a tourist destination in Africa. Being part of ECOWAS also meant I could visit without going through the cumbersome visa application process, so why not? Immediately I started my research and in less than 2 weeks I had flight, accommodation and tour of Banjul booked.

With no Nigerian airline flying direct from Lagos to Banjul at the time, I had to book Fly Mid Africa, an airline based in Banjul, Gambia.

First leg of the journey was on board an Airpeace flight from Port Harcourt to Lagos on the 1st of Nov 2017 at about 6:00 PM. Spent the night at CitiHeight hotel Ikeja, Lagos.Read more
