But I need to stop off at Nigeria .... they do something there I am rather fond of ....  building with bamboo and 'mud '    and making houses for the spirits to live in and visit

I'll be skirting the 'Ivory Coast ' ... they dont like 'foreign interference ' . I have run up against them in the past  when I tried to organize a gift of farming equipment to some people there , post war .  I was told  the leader of the country does not like Red Cross  and refuses all aid . Do not send anything with a red cross on it, or any type of cross or anything red on the outside . Its also best to include a letter (as your packages WILL be opened and inspected ) saying how great our President is  and how fortunate we all are to have such a great and generous man as our leader  ( but just say president , do not name him as that could change any time ) . ' 

 

So as I pass , I hung this over the side of the boat ;

 

'Hello  Cote de Ivoire !  Sorry I cannot stop and visit  I am rushing to Portugal . But I see you have a very beautiful and successful country , no doubt due to efforts of your magnificent , famous, kind and generous , yet stern and strong President  . ' 

 

....  and threw my red shirt overboard , just in case .

I finally got out of detention .  They seemed to think I was from Austria  ..... no no no ... that big island between S.E. Asia and Antarctica !   I also suspect Apech sent them a bribe to 'hold me off'   :angry:

 

I think I am better off out here .... next stop ....  Sierra Leonine , although I know nothing about it .

No, no you will be welcome with open arms.  By arms I mean small arms or possibly an assault rifle or two.

I see there are kits for adding a riding mower to one's boat, could help for long trips like yours ;)

I will admit a mistake when I make one . 

 

yes, I should have done this right from the beginning .   That way , when I hit trouble in some difficult places and ran out of supplies  ....

Told you about the berserk expedition? Went to high school with Samuel’s younger brother. I got his (Samuel’s) book laying around as well, haven’t got around to reading it yet tho.
