Accra travels

(I wrote this last week, but didn't have time to publish)

Hi,
The last few days, it's hit me that I'm in a developing country. We've moved into a hotel in Accra , the capital city for a couple of nights. I'm starting to notice the creature comforts are missing. Things like paved roads, covered sewers, and electricity aren't readily available.

I walked around a main area of the neighborhood of Osu. It was very busy with people wanting me to buy their items. I did buy a bag and as soon as the merchants saw I bought something, they were on me. I'll be glad to move on to our place in Poquasi tomorrow. It's outside the city. I like Accra, but it's busy.
