Caboose

This is just a quick message as I’ve got to head off to lunch.

We arrived in Abuja yesterday morning, got through immigration and customs without any trouble and were met by local VSO staff. We’re staying at the Crystal Palace hotel in Abuja, huge meals and air conditioning, luxury!

Internet access is trickier, I’m currently using the internet cafe at the hotel, but I should be able to get access from my room in the evening.

We didn’t do much yesterday, exchanged some money, bought local mobile phone pay-as-you go cards and went to a party at the Irish embassy.

More later, possibly with some pictures…
