Just wondering, I was there last year and was wondering if anyone else here had.

I'm on an African phase right now, what was it like?

I'm pretty sure we don't use words like that around here.

[Eek!]

And your spelling is atrocious.

It was awesome, simply stupendous, and Bob, are you thinking of Nigeria? Niger and Nigeria are two very different countries.

Why wouldn't we use the word Nigeria? I'm thinking the word he was thinking of just had an extra g in it.

Posted by Rhaegar The Fool (Member # 5811) on :

Nigeria is a different country than Niger. Nigeria is jungle, Niger is the Sahara desert, there are two countries in between them. Niger is pronounced {Nee-jer} Nigeria is pronounced {Nie-Gee-Ree-Ah}

Rheager stop to think... He wasn't spelling the name of a country. Think of a word that starts with an N and looks like Tigger without the T.

(Oh yeah and I'm jealous you've been to Niger. One of these days I'll make it out of the U.S.)
