Day 77: Thursday 20 January 2011.  Private house, Accra, Ghana.  Distance driven 50 km
 
We were al ready to move out this morning, thinking we would have a few days away down the coast and return in time to receive the DHL package on Monday. However, I phoned DHL at 0800 and they advised that our package will be here in Accra tonight and that I can clear it tomorrow.  Hopefully, I can also fit the shafts tomorrow.  On that news we changed our plans and decided to stay in Accra and then hopefully go off on Saturday morning. 
 
After hunting for about an hour we eventually found the Benin Embassy, submitted a visa application (10,000 CFA each) and collected our visas this afternoon-  all very pleasant and efficient.  The only surprise was having to speak French again!
