I'll have to post here whenever I get a spare minute because I'm presently working 60+ hours per week. But I'll keep trying!
The company provided a photo of the driver that was to pick me up at the airport so that I wouldn't be conned into riding with someone with bad intentions. Unfortunately, he was an hour late. But he eventually arrived and we were off to the hotel with a police escort dodging in and out of traffic. It really speeds up the trip! But apparently the company was worried that we might be held up/mugged on the way to the hotel. That particular road is dangerous.
Lagos is safe relative to other parts of Nigeria. The really dangerous parts are in the Delta area, about 700 miles away.

Wow, the first post really sets the tone for why your blog is called 'I'm still safe'! Can't wait to hear more about what it's like there and see more pictures.
wowza, aren't you the vip with your police escort! (hope you had notice that he was going to be late - how nerve-wracking)
i'm so glad you set this up - hope you can find a moment now and then!! your public demands photos! (and daisy can help when she gets there, right?)
