In October 2003, my best mate and I did something that to this day, I cannot believe we did, we went to Ghana for a week on our own, no kids or partners.
We have 10 children between us and had disgust many times that we thought we deserved a break, never really beleiving that we would go away for a week-end to the beach, let alone Ghana!

Having been transferred to Ghana in the year 2000 and having lived their for a period of over one year I thought I might write an opinion on Ghana Airways, with whom I traveled with many times.
Ghana Airways is the national airline of Ghana and their slogan is “Your Star in the Sky”

Abidjan (Ivory Coast), Conakry (Guinea), Dakar (Senegal), Lagos ...
