Egbe Grocery Store

Abby Anderson was nice enough to send us a picture of our new grocery store. As you can see we will have a large selection of items to choose from….HAHA. We will be living in the bush so I guess I should be happy that we have a grocery store at all. We have started thinking of items to ship over before we arrive since we will need some time to adjust to the Nigerian food. We tried to quit drinking coffee and after a week we were going to hurt someone our ourselves. Needless to say we will be shipping 100lbs of coffee along with many other essentials in May on a large shipping container. A few other items will be our couches, mattresses, clothing for two years, dishes, small appliances, and a motorcycle for transportation. These are just a few of the items we have been advised that we will not be able to live without. This is just the beginning of items we will need to purchase and pack. It is very overwhelming and since we have no mail courier service and the closest town with essentials is 3 hours away, we get worried that we may forget something!
