Back Roads of Nigeria

The majority of our nine days in Nigeria were spent driving and seeking our Cameroon VISA.  We headed north in Benin and crossed over to Nigeria into a very rural area.  The roads were extremely poor. One day we spent the entire day driving only to cover 80k.  Because of the road conditions,  we arrived in Abuja a day late the Cameroon Embassy was closed to public on Fridays.  As alternative, we headed south to Calabar to a Cameroon Consulate where we eventually got our Cameroon VISA.  The drive south also required us to backtrack.  As a result we didn't see or do much in Nigeria except drive and over night at camps and hotels.   








Filthy! Five days of "bush" camping with no showers!
