We know a bit about Lagos as Anne has been living there for 1½ years as child and has later visited her parents when her father was working there. As far as we know, Lagos hasn't been as stable in the last 30 years as it is at the moment, so we should be fine:) We have communication with other couples who've adopted from Lagos and some who are down there at the moment, and apart from having to cope with unstable electricity etc there having a good time.
