Lagos visit...#1

[HoustonJoe]

First time in Lagos. As you can see by my profile I'm no stranger to the hobby but I do have certain limitations that are not conducive to hobbying in Lagos, Nigeria. Not that I would know where to start anyways.

Day 1 of 8....mostly travel and nothing but jet lag to speak of. For me...very little eye candy if any so far. I'll keep the thread updated as the trip progresses.

Joe,

Welcome to Lagos. You will understand the title, if you look at the local license plates.

So what area are you staying in? Victoria Island or VI is the largest concentration of expats and clubs. And guess what else that attracts? Commonly referred to as Mosquitos or Night Fighters, there is plenty of talent to be had. My first forays would be to the following watering holes in no particular order: Step In, Pat's Bar, Micheals Bar, Churchill's Bar, Tarzan and any of the big hotels.

Let me know if you need any other info.

WS2, thanks for the intel. I'm here with a group so it's hard to break away. We are in Ikoyi area, not too far from VI. We were at Eko tonight but left just as the talent was arriving. We are meeting some clients at a club tomorrow evening for drinks, not sure where as of yet.

I've heard the term mosquitos a few times now; quite funny.

If I have any adventures I'll be sure to relay the details.

Thanks again and look forward to coming back many times.

Yes, Eko talent tends to trickle in a little late, and I find that they are true road warriors. Just down the street next to Johnny Rockets is Micheals, and while techno music is thumping you can find the gem here and there coming to the dance floor. Ikoye is basically a residential area, and other than a good wine bar, not much here worth writing about.

Try to get to Pats or Step In bar and grab a meal there. Decent pub grub.
