For those of you who think Africa is just too far away, you are about to be proven wrong! We are gearing up for not one, but TWO visitors from Vancouver, WA! Very soon, you will see pictures abounding on our blogspot of someone from a faraway place just like you pictured in the various settings that Nigeria has to offer . . .the crowded marketplace, a distant waterhole with elephants nearby, a high school basketball game with a mob of international parents cheering on, etc.
Who are these wild and crazy adventurers?
The first one is my spunky, daring sister from Vancouver who is about to bravely get on a flight solo to Nigeria. She is coming for 10 days. So far the plans are to blitz the trade shops for souvenirs, navigate our way through the side streets of the marketplace, spend a day at a nearby game reserve and natural spring, immunize orphans at a makeshift clinic, be a guest lecturer to eager Nigerian seminary students, drive out in the country to a nearby orphanage as guests for tea, and many more. After this whirlwind trip is over, I am expecting to need a vacation!
Crazy adventurer #2 is a colleague of Michael’s: Dr. Doug Meyers. He is also coming solo to work and experience all that Nigeria has to offer.
Anyone else want to come?
