Yesterday was our first day in Ghana. Once we got off the plane and got our visas
checked we found out that I had left my book on the plane. The lady that helped us find it was really
nice and we got it back in about fifteen minutes. Meanwhile we found out that our bag hadn’t
gotten on the plane so we would have to wait until the next day to get it. Next, it took a really
long time to find a hotel. Then the restaurant that the guide book described as perfect for us, vegetarian and on the ocean, was creepy and was located in a strange section of Accra. It took forever for the taxi driver to locate it. Thankfully we ended up at a pizza place in Osu, a section of Accra that is as good as this city gets (which isn't saying that much). I really don't like Accra. It has open stinky sewers everywhere. There is way too much traffic. Taxi rides take a long time because the city is super spread out. I don't like it here and it is giving me a bad first impression of West Africa. It makes me appreciate how great it is to live in the Upper Valley.- Brook
