Dear diary,

A very beautiful morning down here in the city of Accra.
Accra is a very beautiful city, Accra is the capital of ghana, this is my first time of staying over in Accra, other times I have been in transit and I haven't been able to see much of Accra.

woke up this morning to a cloudy Accra city, it was still early in the morning, the buzzing sound of the vehicle said a lot about the population of the city.

Accra is the capital of Ghana, on the Atlantic coast of West Africa. Kwame Nkrumah Memorial Park honors Ghana’s first president, who helped lead the country to independence. The park contains Nkrumah’s mausoleum and a museum charting his life. Makola Market is the city’s vast, colorful bazaar. Popular seafront spots Labadi Beach and Kokrobite Beach offer golden sand and high-energy nightlife.

I hope to make good use of my time while I am here.
I made a friend Nana and he told me enough of Ghana and their history.
he told me of fun sites to visit and history dating back to their independence.

He told us about how the Portuguese first settled on the coast of what is now Ghana in 1482, the present site of Accra was occupied by several villages of the Ga tribe, ruled from a parenting settlement, Ayaso (Ayawaso), located about 15 miles (24 km) north. Between 1650 and 1680 the Europeans built three fortified trading posts—Fort James (English), Fort Crevecoeur (Dutch), and Christiansborg Castle (Danish)—along the coast in the locality. While these European posts were being constructed, Ayaso was destroyed in a tribal war, and its population, together with that of the other major Ga towns on the Accra plains, was drawn to the coast by the prospect of profitable trade with the Europeans.

I can't wait to go and visit this places tomorrow, I have started making plans to.

later that night we checked out of the Chisco guest House and we moved to a new location, The green Leaf hotel very close to the embassy. we aren't done with our paper works yet.
