Ghana and Home


Its all gone very fast. Today is the 12th March and in 15 hours we have to be at the airport to catch the plane home. Barring delays in Ouagadougou and Tripoli we should be home tomorrow morning. It better be summer in the UK by now!

After spending 4 days in the East of Burkina Faso doing the last of the interviews we headed for a whistle stop tour of Ghana to find Accra, Linnet, Hannah and the beach. We thankfully found all four and it was well worth the trip, despite the hours spent on coaches getting there and back. I am attempting to add photos from the East and Ghana to some more slideshows on the right hand side (I am struggling though for some reason). Once they are up I will also do some retrospective updates just to round things off propoerly. I don't want to miss out any of the exciting tales just because I've been too busy to update for the past two weeks...

Now that we are back in Ouaga we have realised that the hot season has crept up on us and it is HOT! Yesterday a roadside thermometer read 49 degrees C. I'm not sure it was that hot but it was certainly hot. It is 7.15am as I write and it is already way too hot.
