Thursday: Again on the Road Again

Thursday: Again on the Road Again

We jumped out of bed, packed up our stuff, jumped into the pool and then waved goodbye to the Coconut Grove. We took a van back to Accra stopping at the bank, the infamous Shell Station (no dancing this time!), and then Esther's shop in Osu. Esther claims that Michelle Obama came to her shop and had Esther custom make a dress for her.  Señora had measurements taken for a shirt and we watched in fascination as the tailor did not record a single measurement.   The cost for a custom-made shirt is 15 Cedis. The van dropped us back off at our first hotel the Afia Beach Hotel where will will finish our stay. Unfortunately, the family suite was booked so Señora and Tilley have a room and Bridget and Burg have a room. We finally were able to watch a Ghanaian soap opera and we realized that soaps are the same no matter where you are.  Off to dinner and a good nights rest.
