Day 19: In Paradise! (aka Lagos)

I have discovered something along my journey. No matter where you are from and no matter who you are - if you stay in a hostel, chances are you will be making yourself pasta for dinner. It is the universal hostel food I think! I can see why- its cheap and easy! I admit, I've made myself quite a bit of pasta as well! But I have an excuse- being a single traveller and only staying in a city for one or two nights means not a lot of options! I'm not going to buy a whole head of lettuce or bunch of broccoli for just me! Hopefully I will be having a little more variety when I meet up with my mom tomorrow!



Well this morning I had your typical hostel breakfast- cereal and toast- and then it was off for a relaxing day at the beach. There are two main beaches in Lagos, but also a few smaller areas of beach access that you can only reach by a steep set of stairs. They are like little coves with the rocks all around- kind of like little pieces of heaven! haha It was so beautiful and relaxing!











I headed back to the hostel for lunch and then in the afternoon it was back to the beach! (Its something I will never get sick of!) Tonight I am heading out with some people from my hostel...not sure exactly what is planned, but hopefully it won't be as crazy as Lisbon! But don't worry, my bus ride isn't until 1:45pm so I have plenty of time to sleep in! I know I probably shouldn't be going out so soon after that crazy pub crawl in Lisbon...but there's pretty much 2 reasons to come to Lagos: for the beach and to party! And since I've already gone to the beach, that means theres only one thing left for me to do! ;)

Love, Dianna

    Love the photos! Love the stories. This is the best part of my day, sitting down at my computer checking out your adventures. The beach looks .... well I am in awe... You are so fortunate. I hope that the party was not too too much for you, but knowing you it was one that you will never forget.

    Keep the stories coming. I am so inspired by you and yes, your adventures help put my life into perspective. Thank you! Cheers and continue to update! HUGS from the cold Fort McMurray!
