We're just in the middle of checking out and our bill comes to just over 2 million. Hope Milan signs off that expense form!

After having our first experience of African time (waiting nearly 2 hours for our driver - and we'd backed our swimmers as well!!) we made our way to the Plan Ghana's head office. When we got to the office we had the opportunity of meeting several members of Plan Ghana's staff including their current Country Director. As everyone was heading off to lunch we decided to get some money changed (for a short time I was a multi millionaire) and were then taken to the Arts Centre (which is more of a kind of market) to pick up a few souvenirs and have a quick lunch. When we got back to the office we had the opportunity to meet everyone else who works at Plan Ghana before we started making our way to Mankessim.

We took the opportunity of unpacking all the toys before heading over to the restaurant for some dinner.
