Our Bike Adventure Begins (Hohue to Wli, Ghana)

Happy to begin our 3 country bike journey

Today we bought more items for the bike journey and finally started our riding adventure at 3:45.  But we headed off in the wrong direction, so we lost another 20 minutes getting back to the correct road, toward the village of Wli (pronounced “vlee”).  It was a two hour hilly ride that started off hot but cooled down as it got late in the day.  About half way to Wli we got a good look at the big mountains by the Togo border that we will be riding in in the coming days.  Although there were tiny ants on the floor, it was a nice hotel in Wli with great food, such as wild mushroom soup!

Today we completed our preparations for our bike trip and after much anticipation, began our three-nation bike journey!  It felt really good to finally hit the road.  Once it cooled down in the early evening it was very enjoyable riding, just as the scenery also became gorgeous.  I  enjoyed real salad and red red for dinner.
