Ghana

Been here just over a week and am not really impressed with the place. It is like a sefer version of Nigeria. The locals see the white skin and want to cheat and rob you with a smile on their face.

Everywhere there are street sellers, sitting by the side of the road and wandering beside you at the traffic lights flogging all sorts of shit from sweets to shoes, from pens to pictures. Not reallypestering but have to tell each one no before they leave you alone.

Selling junk.

The hotel looks nice but is really pretty crap. Room is OK but the service is appaling, breakfast is a joke, order toast and eggs and you get the toast and once it is cold then you get the eggs IF they remember. The air conditioning and hot water is switched off daily by the cleaner even when I have gone to get a cup of tea while they clean and the girl knows that I will be back immediatly. As I say really shitty service, expect a lot better for 120 USD per night.


Don't know what this is for but it is by the parade ground, the independance arch and the national stadium.

Don't really want to come back here, which probably means that I will.
