Taxi.....!?



So today I went with Jeff to the machine yard for a few hours and on our way home we saw this. I have never seen this before but at the same time for some reason I was not surprised one bit. I guess after spending almost a year here I have become accustomed to crazy things like this. I have seen taxi's filled to the absolute brim with yams, plantains, bananas, and a TON of people.....but not GOATS. So I had to snap a picture.....our driver thought there were about 10 of them in this taxi which is only a little Volkswagen golf. haha! Obviously the driver of the taxi didn't care too much about his car. I can't imagine the mess these goats were making inside....we were just sitting behind it for 2 mins and we saw goats "relieving themselves" as the nigeria's would call it. What a mess!! Just another day in Lagos....

Would hate to get in that taxi next even after a good cleaning.

My thought is.....cleaning out that taxi would make cleaning the dog poop off the lawn and out of garage like a desirable job. ay?
