After a very Ghanaian morning at the bus station we’re en route to Tamale, from which we’ll catch another bus to Mole National Park and get some safari action. The road north from Accra leaves something to be desired. For a good distance the traffic just travels on dirt roads adjacent to the freeway that is under construction. We hit some four-lane roads for awhile and made good progress, but now we’re in the dirt again. : /
We’ve heard varying reports for the length of our current journey, ranging from 6 hours to 14. We’re hoping for the former, otherwise we’ll be catching a bus from Tamale tomorrow instead of this afternoon. Doing my best to include a video from the bus, but forgive me if you don’t see any media until we’re back home.
Giving up on the video with the cell service out here. It’s also incredibly hard to take pictures since we’re off-roading.
Here’s an unrelated pic of an approaching storm front in Atorkor earlier this week
We looked up Tamale and Mole on google since we are untraveled white folks who know nothing about African geography….or dancing for that matter. But we can learn both! Have fun and don’t get run over by an elephant!
