Last 10 Days in Lagos

So, we are preparing to enter our last week of teaching at AISL and spending time with our friends over here. This blog will highlight a few of the things we're going to miss from this place.

This is "Chalk Talk" from Bryan's classes, showing some of the concepts the kids learned throughout the year.


It is rare to hear someone exclaim excitement about having gas, but being a chemistry teacher in Lagos, my students and I all celebrated the fact that "WE HAVE GAS!!!"

Some of the AIS ladies. From left to right: Gina, Pagia, Yvonne, Kara, DeeDee, and Ebele.

Here is our driver, Eze (pronounced "easy"), with his wife.

This is a picture of Gina and Mary with David "phishing" in the background.

Bryan and Larry Fizer, a friend and chaperone from the Italy and Spain trips.

Us with Mr. Alfred Ohimain, a friend, fellow teacher, and the guy that taught Kara to kick (aka 5th dan black belt karate instructor).

The man who changed our life, Mr. Tom Shearer, with his wife, Lori. I'm sure you can't miss Terry Burns, our Elementary Principal and fellow chaperone on the SeaCamp trip, catching an opportunity to "phish".

We have had so many amazing experiences over here, built relationships, and created many memories. It will be difficult to leave, but we are excited to be close to our family, friends, and dog again and begin the next chapter of our lives. See you all soon!!!
