[edit] Magic place

Good to see that some updates are happening on Accra. I spend 10 days here about 12 years ago. Stayed at the Labadi Beach Hotel (no idea what it cost, company paid). Probably the most friendly people anywhere in the world, from the taxi drivers at the airport to the people on the streets downtown. Spotless white beaches. Damn hot though, 32C when I got off the plane at 4AM; but the local beer is good and does an excellent job at cooling one down. I was supposed to stay for only 7 days, but enjoyed it so much that I happened to miss my flight out to Keyna. US$10 got me a taxi for the day and Ghana Air in downtown Accra has me sorted out with a new flight within an hour. Brilliant place, I'd go back any day. NJR_ZA 14:49, 22 January 2007 (EST)
