It seemed pretty expensive though and when I said that a staff member suggested that maybe I didn't really have proper running shoes. Pfft. Even if you don't find any shoes, the open air upper deck food court is worth a visit, as is the fancy cake display in the big supermarket ;-).

I did drool going past the cake display..have to be dragged away from stuff like that by my other half. Macca, I think that when we were in Lagos, I didn't get to explore as much as I would've liked!
