Nigeria Oct13

This morning we ate at hotel again for breakfast.  Then,I hung out at the hotel and prepared for service.  My dad and Mark went around ‘shopping’.  Don’t tell anyone.  We later went to a market-type place under a bridge.  It was very rough.  They were very poor and their conditions were very dirty.  We did purchase some gifts from them.
