Home stretch

Not much time left, I'll be leaving Ghana in almost exactly a week from now.

Spent the last couple days in Mole national park. It was pretty nice, got to go out on safaris, hiking with rangers, and saw plenty of animals, like elephants, green monkeys, patas monkeys, baboons, various antelope species, etc. Also visited a mosque in Larabanga, got there by renting bikes, I unfortunately ended up with a fairly crappy one (most in Ghana are it seems) but the mosque was still reasonably pretty. It's been really hot up here in the north, as expected. I'm not sure how the temperature in Eastern region will be.

So we are trying to get as far into eastern region today as possible. G&E want to go to Kybobo national park, it is a pretty new place. I just hope it is not too inconvenient to get to, and that it's worth it once we get there (esp after being in Mole, the big daddy of ghanaian national parks). After that we head down to around Hohoe, where there is a mountain to climb, and a waterfalls to see. After that, it's on to Accra for a final night before we fly out.

Still have a week in UAE, still trying to make it shorter. It'll simply be really expensive, only a couple places have youth hostels. Also, I'm looking forward to getting home again. But we'll see what happens.

Don't know if we'll have much internet access in the next week or so, but I'm outta time here!
