In the evening,i was traveling to my village with my friend,i pack my bags, took my bathe , dressed up,the challenge was bad weather,so i monitor the weather,when the sky was brighten a little,i stood up and went to the road side, picked a tricycle truck, the driver carried us to the main junction.

There was a natural effect that stopped our journey for good two hours,that was rain, it's felt for that good hours.
By the grace of God,it subsided and we continued our journey to the village.

On the way going,i had another challenge that took me 30 minutes time,a check point control by Nigerian Police, they stopped the vehicle and told us they are doing stop and search,i allowed them to do their job, though it was like a kind of embarrassment to my personality,but I have to obey the law. So after that,i was cleared to pass,so the journey continues, along the line,i didn't took any photography at the police checkpoint because it wasn't propare.

I arrived my home town by 6:25pm,it was important i entered the house,the heavy rain started falling,i thank God for journey mercy,i freshen myself,ate the dinner and relaxed, login to my steemit dashboard,do some tasks, voting, commenting and later I slept, because I was weak due to the day stress. That was how everything went,no calamity.

It must have been a truly delightful experience for you to help prepare breakfast at your sister's house. Beyond just making breakfast, assisting her with planting coconut saplings and clearing the pineapple garden was a significant help as well. Your sister was surely very happy with your heartfelt efforts. However, it was a bit unfortunate to hear that your journey was delayed by nearly two hours due to the rain. While such travel interruptions can be frustrating, you could have made the most of that time by enjoying the rain or getting some rest. Although police checkpoints on the road might seem bothersome, they are crucial for maintaining law and order in the country.
