Finally, here is an update on our journey. We left Vancouver bright and early to catch our flight, our only hiccup was Jenn S who was randomly selected for additional screening, apparently her attire screamed "I have explosives!" We carried on to Amsterdam, where we met up with Rick, Maggie, and the Rotarians.
Another uneventful flight and we were in Accra. When we reached the airport (after bouncing off the wall of heat and humidity) we had a bus take us across the tarmac, a staggering distance of 50m. We lined up in a sweltering room trying to adjust to the heat and being all together uncomfortable after 25 hours of flying.
Our adventure at the airport was prolonged due to one of the baggage compartments being broken and had to be forced open. I wasn't complaining too loudly, it was better that they couldn't open it than it opening on its own at 30,000 ft above the Sahara Desert. We quickly made our way across town to Byblo's Hotel which was to be our home base for our time in Accra.
