Day 12 - Fish Bowls

It was a cracker day in Lagos with not a cloud in the sky all day and the temperature sitting at about 30 degrees from morning through till evening. So what better way to spend the day than lying on the beach! We found ourselves a less populated little grotto than the main beach and settled in for the day.

While down there we got chatting to some fellow kiwis who told us about a restaurant that did meals and unlimited drinks for one hour all for €10. We decided that was a bit of us so after we´d had enough sun (or even a bit too much) we headed to the place to give it our best shot.

Well, drinking in a short space of time became a bit of a theme for us that night, starting with the numerous wines and beers with dinner before heading to a bar with our new found kiwi friends from the beach who decided it would be a great idea to do some fishbowls as a NZ team, but the object of the game was that we had to beat downing the huge cocktail in 5 seconds as some british girls had done it in that time early supposedly. I swear it would have been impossible to do it in that time, the 6 of us slurping our hearts out on our metre long straws and taking a good few minutes! Still, that was probably about 20 minutes too fast, especially when we got roped into doing another one with some other new friends we´d made. Needless to say, from that stage on is a bit of a blur for me, my next memory is of me hugging the toilet bowl back at our hostel. Lovely.
