Nigerian Visas Approved

Holly and I were able to pick up our visas today from the Nigerian Embassy.  I thought it was about 75/25 that we were going to get them since we did not have all the required paper work right in front of us when we submitted our applications yesterday.  And just the way they were when they took our paper work made me question our approval.  It all worked out in the end and they must have received or saw enough to give us a few weeks in the country.  I was especially surprised that they gave it to us in 24 hours compared to the required 48 hours (may have to do with us being there the day before, but not having anything close to what they wanted for paperwork and having to come back).  With this being said we will be moving on from Accra in the morning heading East through Togo and Benin on our way to Nigeria.
