Oktoberfest

At the end of October we went to the yacht club for  a traditional German Oktoberfest - I kid you not. The band were flown over from Bavaria as was ALL the food (Potato salad, sauerkraut and sausages)  and absolutely oodles of wine and beer. We listened to German music stood up and sang the drinking song, stuffed ourselves with food and sank in the saturated ground (Rainy season not yet over) and all of this is truly sweltering heat. It was really bizarre and for the first time since we got to Lagos there was a huge number of Europeans. Where have they all been hiding? wherever we go we are one of the only European couples there and tonight where were the Nigerians?

It was a fabulous if slightly surreal evening and boy oh boy did our heads ache the next day!
