Even More Lagos

I finally decided that I should move on and see Europe like I "planned" to do. You know it's time to leave when you know the names of local dogs ("Hey Gypsy!") and can actually navigate the streets of Lagos without getting lost.

My plan for my last evening in Lagos was to hit every one of the bars that became my favorites because of the atmosphere and the people: Whytes, Sandlot, Irish Rover etc. However, I ended up staying at the Old Tavern pretty much all night.

These Canadian girls did a great job at maintaining our rep as a bunch of partiers.

The big pot on the table contains the homemade sangria the Canadians started, but everyone pitched in to help.

"Don't I look Scottish?"

Once again, starting the evening off at the Old Tavern.

Ad voiceover: "When in the Old Tavern, I like to drink..."

The owner of the Old Tavern (middle) kept giving us free drinks all night. I didn't spend a cent.

The next day, I prepared for my next destination: Morocco. However, someone told me about a bullfighting festival and a big football (that's soccer to us North Americans) game that was going to happen in Madrid, Spain. So, at the last minute, I decided to head to Madrid! As I was walking to the train station, I kept running into people I knew all along the way. I almost missed my train (which I wouldn't have minded too much).
