Accra, Ghana September 27, 2005
Our paperwork has finally arrived. We now have visas for Togo, Benin, Nigeria and Cameroon, leaving only the visa for Niger still to be processed. We'll tackle that small obstacle in Cotonou, Benin.
Tomorrow we are having the car's suspension raised by about two inches in anticipation of the water logged and devasted roads of central Cameroon. We'll also weld metal bars over a particularly vulnerable and shakey rear plastic window, attempt to prevent the lid of our trunk from decomposing any further and purchase a few more tires since we've blown through about six so far.
That should enable us to leave Accra on Thursday. We have some business with World Vision around the Volta region and Sean is unwilling to leave Ghana until he redeems himself as a custodian and cooker of giant forest snails. After those goals are accomplished, we get to go to go Togo and I have no idea what it will be like togo there.
