Greetings and salutations,
Our Saturday began as Lori, Alicia, and myself were awoken at the crack of dawn (we had spent the night in camping in the rain forest) by our park guide in Kumasi National Park. He had arrived to take us on a hike to the park’s skywalk. We reached the skywalk after a short hike up and through the park. The skywalk is a series of bridges and platforms that are suspended across the canopy of the rain forest. The walk was exhilarating, an excellent way to start the day and yes, we all made it across.
After this we began the trip back to Kaneshie Station in Accra. Once we arrived back at Akuma Village we split up, with Molly and Casey heading out to wrap up some loose ends, while the rest of recuperated by doing laundry, napping, and cleaning the bathroom (thanks Lori!).
We sent Molly off in style by having a roof top beverage at the ultra swanky Citizen Kofi in Osu. Molly, who was still recovering from a minor stomach bug, indulged herself by consuming truffle-infused mashed potatoes; according to Casey these potatoes were “incredibly amazing.” After this we headed to Mama Mia for some delicious pasta. We ended the evening early and got some much needed rest, that is until Casey and Molly inadvertently woke me while trying to detain a potentially lethal gecko. Luckily it escaped the pokes from Casey’s mosquito net pole and vanished into someone’s luggage.
Our final week is sure to be a whirlwind...
Respect,
