When i say Lagos is beautiful especially in the morning, some people, some "very special" people will be arguing with me. Its unfortunate that i call them my friends ....
Okay that was harsh, lol but after the last blog post of
Lagos and the sites we never really take in , you'd think they'd concede the fact , that despite the regular hustle and bustle the place is simply just awesome......
Take a look at this
 |
| You wake up in the morning on your way to work and you are greeted with scenery like this. And even though the hustle and bustle is on , you cannot deny the fact that its the busyness of the place that lends it some beauty. |
 |
| Two of the icons of our fair city, one you are already familiar with.. " The Third Mainland Bridge", the other is this gritty and wild combination of old buses, noisy conductors and petrified passengers that we call the "DANFO", coming together to bring that extra tone of craziness to the roads of Lagos. You really have to be a little insane to be able to call yourself a road user with these guys around. Survive Lagos and you can survive anywhere Move Over NY. |

| And even when it rains it gives you this sense of being in an epic movie, the clouds take on a whole new form and the land scape conspires to bring you some kind of color that you cant really put your finger on , while you fly down through roads that are rarely empty, wondering to yourself if you've been transported to some Hollywood car chase scene. |
 |
| And ten you stop to observe our own version of Venice, the fabled floating city, this Makoko that the BBC and the rest of the world media has paid so much attention to.. Why don't you pay a visit, see what its really about |
|
|
 |
| And when you are traveling at a blistering pace, even when you cant see too much |
|
|
|
 |
| At least you still see that flash of Lagos as you head home that reminds you what a crazy , mad , lovely , hot, cold , bland, boring , exciting day youve just had. |
