Long time no write, because I have just returned from a two week’s motoring holiday to Ghana with Keita , his big sister Djenneba and our driver Patrice.

The journey south was full of excitement and anticipation of what we believed was in store for us once we arrived at the coast. I had dreamed for months about the happy days we would spend lying on a palm fringed beach, listening to the great waves rolling in, whilst reading a good book; perhaps taking a dip in the pool before strolling off to the restaurant for a seafood lunch overlooking the ocean, followed by a siesta in our lovely room with all mod cons.
