Too much of a good thing? No way... these were taken around town.

First is an elevated view of Wuse II, home to ICS, our beloved Chicken Republic, the ever-reliable Bomas Supermarket, and, yes, Coomy Automobiles. Amanda, remember looking at GoogleMaps and trying to figure out where the school was located?! I thought it was "Woos 2" but they quickly corrected me - it's "WOO-say 2."

Next up is the Fortress herself...the American Embassy. On a semi-related note, can someone advise me on the legality of posting this picture? I'd hate to get pulled by the Feds for this.

Lastly is a picture of the omnipresent Abuja construction. The red and white barricades signify a Diversion (American "Detour"). And that's a Toyota Hilux, a very popular truck here. Note the legit speed bump in the foreground. They spent 40 million Naira putting those in all over the city, and now they're spending 60 million ripping them up again. Oh, Nigeria...
