African Cruise SA to Portugal

In the morning I took the shuttle to downtown. Pam slept in. It turned out everything was closed because it was Sunday. Scott Sweetow, that has 3 girlfriends, was there so we walked around. He was looking for a bar for a local beer at 1030am. The taxi drivers were trying to sell us a taxi ride to a hotel. Finally someone walked us to an open bar in the back yard of a gym walking thru slums. After beer we had the "bathroom experience". The bar guy was very polite but apologized about his bathroom. It was clean but it was just a wooden enclosure with tile(mostly broken pieces) floor. Had a small plastic bucket on the side, the side of a 16oz can. I asked if I had to pee in the bucket. It was so small. He said no just the floor. Then Scott had to go after me.
Back to the taxi station was negotiated a taxi with another couple that was gonna pay $20. I told the driver the shuttle guy said it was $30 for 1 hour of touring around. So he accepted $10. But the taxi super was upset at him for skipping his turn in line so someone else took us to the port.
In the afternoon we took the ship's tour which took us around the twin cities, as called ( Sekondi and Takoradi). At the fisherman's port they showed us how their brand new machine from Japan that made ice blocks for boats, was working. Then we walked around the boats and took pictures. Each boat had flags on it from diff countries based on each fisherman's fancy.Baca lagi
