Leaving Canada was not without in incident. I realized the night before leaving for Portugal that not only was the clip on my back pack broken but I was also missing a critical part for the solar charger to work. Fortunately, my friend that was taking me the airport was able to leave earlier and we raced not only to the airport but made a pit stop to Mountain Equipment in downtown Toronto first.
Just arrived to Lis |
Lisbon |
Could you imagine me not getting my luggage!!!! Fortunately the ladies that checked me in a EWR were great and went digging for luggage to be sure it was tagged correctly. At this point I needed and totally enjoyed a beer before getting on the plane for my pleasant 6 hour flight to Lisbon. From this point, even with a language barrier, I very easily found a cab to the bus station, purchased by bus ticket and was met by Lis 4 hours later in Lagos......beautiful Lagos.
We spent the next couple of days strolling around in Lagos and finally the 28th morning we set out on our way to Lisbon where we spent the day and evening acting like the tourist we are. A big thanks to Paul for taken us to the station and by the way Lis got better by the hour after taken her first Malaria tablet !
Early the next morning we took the flight from Lisbon to Amsterdam and our hotel were just down town so as soon as we arrived we hit the town and had a great time experience the atmosphere which only can be found in Amsterdam. Tomorrow morning we will fly out to Kilimanjaro airport and start the adventure there.
