MY EXPERIENCE AT OLD CALABAR; AN EXPERIENCE I WONT FORGET IN A HURRY

On a sunny Saturday morning my colleagues and I were patiently waiting inside the school premises for the highly anticipated tour bus that was supposed to take us on the tour round the city. Few minutes later we were informed of the arrival of the bus which was stationed outside the school, precisely at the main gate of the university. The small crowd surged forward at a blinding pace almost running me down in the process, I did understand the reason for the urgency, for it was our 1st tour and everyone wanted to get a comfortable sit. we got into the bus with much expectation and resorted to taking pictures, chatting and singing. Inside the bus we met the tour guide who introduced himself as Mr. Martin. He was extremely nice and gave us some tour guiding tips; advising us on the kind of outfit suitable for tours. There was a short benediction which lasted for just a few minutes, and after it was done, the driver turned on the car and the business of the day commenced. Less than 5minutes into the tour we came across the 1st roundabout “The Mary Slessor roundabout”.
