UK to Africa, Africa to the UK

Today is my last day in Africa, but not the last of my posts. There is so much to recall and so many comparisons to be made. I intend to eat my Frosties in the next half an hour and wash again. Maybe I will have another bath. Jeff and Tamara and Michael and Patricia will all see to it that I am taken to the airport on time this evening. The flight leaves at 2340 and lands in the UK tomorrow morning. There were no seats for my return journey and I upgraded to Business Class. Yes, it is expensive, but Michael and Patricia (I hope) will only get married once. Well, that’s not true either. They were married twice. They married once as part of the traditional marriage process and once again in line with their religious beliefs. The packed plane is due to the end of the summer vacation. Those Ghanaian’s who have returned to Ghana for the summer now have to be back in the UK for their children to attend school. I suspect that business class will also be full; but this part of the plane will be less cramped and with fully reclining seats. The food on Ghana International Airways is good - a mixture of African and European. The service is good as well, as the African’s know how to look after their guests.
