Day 29: Murky Market Mahem!

Our last full day in Ghana...shopping and beach time! A snoozy Sophia meant we didn’t leave till 10.30am to Accra, and after the rough and tumble of getting onto a tro, we were heading in the right direction, with our plan of getting off at Kaneshie Market, the stop before Circle.


Kaneshie market was too crazy for us Obruni, and so we quickly got a taxi to the safe tourist filled National Culture Market.  Lots of purchases and trades were made, I bought a variety of bracelets, a painting and a rather nice brown leather bag.  We left Accra having actually spent all our money and headed to Bojo beach, even though the clouds covering the sun we were desperate to at least try and get some last minute tanning in.  We got a brief spell of sunshine at Bojo, but for the rest of the day the sun remained hidden behind the clouds.

That evening we returned to JD’s for our last supper, a surprising new installment had been made; now rather than having only one singular menu they had NONE. Truly award winning service, they are so lucky I knew exactly what I wanted.  With our last day done, we headed to bed knowing tomorrow would be the beginning of an epic journey back to Newcastle.
