Pee or toilet?

After lots of fiddle, I was picked up from the airport by Godwin. After an hour of driving we still hadn't reached the guest house and while we were driving through what looked like a small village (found out later it was actually the suburb of Accra called Deshie) I was starting to get a little bit worried. On the way we also hit a chicken which got stuck in the wheel and got stuck in a mud hole. There were no roads, only dusty orange dirt roads and shacks alongside it. However there was no reason to worry, it was all very safe. This guest house was just the house of Godwin and his family. It was right in the middle of no where, so very quiet, only the sound of the crickets and occasionaly the people praying (more like shouting) across the road. We were right opposite the military training sport field so this place was 150% safe he said. Also he said there were actually soldiers in the bushes looking out like big brother!

There are so many people everywhere! It's incredible.

Sitting in the luxury of an airco bus looking out at the world pass by is very enjoyable.

Okay I've been to one public toilet. The time had to come some time for which I was a bit worrying about. I was expecting just a hole in the muddy floor but this was different, but also not that pleasant as well. For the sum of 10 pesewas (about 5 $ cents) I had the pleasure to use the "ladies urinal".
"Pee or toilet?" the toilet man asked. Toilet cost double so I went for pee.

A good sized African lady comes out closing her skirt and I can already smell the odour and feel the flies swarming about. Luckily I was the only one in there at the time since this was communal!

I though Chinese toilets were bad, I take that back! Forgot not having any doors, at least in China there were small separations (walls) between the holes. This one at the bus stop in Accra was just a sort of open sewer stream where you just had to do with while looking at the behinds of the people in front of you!

During the bus trip, it was comforting to see signs saying "32 people died here" and "15 people died here" and "24 people died here" along the road every 200 metres!
