Money Man

In Kano, people in the know have "guys" who exchange their money for them. You get better rates, and it's safer than a bank (where thieves tend to congregate). We pulled alongside a Chinese restaurant to meet up with ours. Here, Christopher is negotiating an excellent rate.

One photo. I love the story though.

Are there Chinese restaurants *everywhere*?

I'm having serious trouble uploading to Flickr from my hotel here in Nigeria. I'll probably have to wait until I get back.

As for your question about Chinese restaurants, the answer is yes. Check out The Fortune Cookie Chronicles, written by an ex-college mate of mine.
