Victoria's Secret Nigerian Style

It's the Umbralla


It was a good day for shopping at Balagun Market. The rainy season has cooled things off, the crowds were down, the prices were good and the bodyguard only had to pull his gun out once.








They sell everything here from fabric to fruit



Balagun's version of a shopping cart. For a little more than a dollar she carried our bags about a mile to the car


Everywhere we go we hear "Oyibo" (white person, means peeled one)
Also known as "those who eat food from cans"
Here we are following the bodyguard (in yellow) and our porter (pink bag on head)
