The Journey
We came in with IOM arranged tickets. The discount they gave us really made sense. If I had gone directly, I would have paid N2.7m for myself and my family. But with IOM I ended up paying N1.3m. Although I had to send them plenty reminders after filling their form and the initial one week they gave me had elapsed.

The journey though long, was very pleasant on Emirates. IOM waited for us at Dubai and took us to an all expense paid lounge where we waited for the connecting flight to Melbourne. In that lounge was a small buffet where we ate and drank without paying a kobo. Summary: Please if you can, go ahead and book with IOM. I highly recommend them pls.

In Melbourne
I came into Melbourne and met some serious cold weather. Though I was warned, the height of the cold (permit the english) was beyond me. So please when coming here, make adequate preps for yourself and your little ones. Buy thick jacket, gloves and thick socks. No go do Ijebu like me and go buy some lame sweater from Naija. I spent one day in Melbourne and had to buy a serious and expensive jacket. I was told that winter is about coming and so things would get colder . No dull yourself.

The transport system in Victoria is very organized and similar to what is obtainable in UK. They have prams, trains and buses. All can be paid using a Myki card. If you would be coming into Melbourne, pls get more info here https://www.ptua.org.au/2009/11/18/myki-qa/. Children above 5 years and the elderly pay half the price. In order to move around town, you would need this card. Then download this app on your phone https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=au.gov.vic.ptv&hl=en. This app is a must as it gives you bus/train directions on how to get from your current location to anywhere within Melbourne (or Victoria as a whole). Earlier today I go enter wrong bus and don miss road already. But with this app, I found my way back. Using this app requires you to have a SIM with a data plan. I was told Optus is a great GSM line with good data plans. So ensure you have good data before stepping out of your house.
Finally please if you have many children you have to know that the law requires them to be in car seats from ages 16 and below. Get more info here https://www.vicroads.vic.gov.au/safety-and-road-rules/road-rules/a-to-z-of-road-rules/seat-belts-and-child-restraints. Omo if them catch you carrying a child without car seat, you go pay heavy fine (as much as $350). I plan to sort out this car seat wahala tomorrow so that we can all go for necessary registrations.

Cheers guys. Will update you as I go along.

While it is strongly advised that individuals should do their part in getting answers or show to have made effort to get answers to the questions they might have, i would also suggest that we should choose our words carefully when responding to a questioner.

Though I know that we are all unanimous here and only a few may know certain individuals or one another aside from their pseudonyms, It is essential that people are responded to with dignity and not made to feel that they are made into a laughing stock.

This is my candid opinion and I think everyone should take heed. Thanks.

Helllooooo.. Please, why pick on me. Didn't you see the people who mocked him to tell all these? I even took out time to explain the necessary steps to be taken and here you are making me feel bad about it embarassed embarassed

I only expressed an opinion as stated in the last sentence of my post.
The intent of the post was never to pick on anyone nor to make anyone feel bad.

Important info to you guys using online plagiarism checkers.
.
Some of these online checkers save a copy of your document after the scans. This remains in a public database which EA do have access to. It means that it is possible that EA will run a scan on your work, and find high similarity, just because a plagiarism software has saved your work online. I advise you avoid it completely. Since you ve written the CDR in your own words, be confident that there is no issue of plagiarism. Using online checkers can cause more unnecessary issues.

Thank you very much sir, I was actually asking for a software and not online site, an offline software should be OK. But again like you said, it's already in our own words, we shouldn't fear for plagiarism.

Yes they will be expecting you. In my case, while we were coming out of the plane at Dubai, an Arab guy dressed in a suit approached us and called out our names. I guess he had our passport details with our photos. So no worries, they will look out for you at Dubai. Also try to get to the MMA airport Ikeja at least one hour before the check in time. This will help you be at the top of the Emirates queue and save your waiting time. You know say chair to siddon no dey our airport. Then if you have many luggages, pls ensure that each one does not exceed 23Kg. I had to buy a scale to measure each bag at home before going to the airport.
