The Year Of RAturn 2019 - TCXPI's Trips To The Motherland - Ghana - Day #1

I left San Francisco, CA on Tuesday, September 10, 2019 at 7:25am.
I arrived in Accra, Ghana on Wednesday, September 11, 2019 at 3:30pm.

I had two layovers - one in Trenton, NJ, the other in Toronto, Canada.
Overall the travel to Ghana was uneventful.

I hired a driver, Mohammed, who was very patient with me and assisted me in re-activating my Ghanaian phone, and converting my currency to Cedis while at the airport. He gave me his card in case I needed his services. 

It felt good to be back on the Soil of the Motherland.
I AM HOME!

Kotoko International Airport

I arrived at my housing accomodations in North Dzorwulu, which also serves as an AirBnb - Vivian AirBnB. I stayed here also during my first visit in the Spring of 2018 and Dr. V and I have formed a bond. I was welcomed by the family. I went up and began settling in and unpacking. I was welcomed with a homecooked dinner. Such a wonderful surprise.

Jolof rice, red sauce, fried chicken, plantain, yucca, and veggies.

Fruit presented to me upon my arrival - papaya, pineapple, avocado, oranges, bananas.

The Year Of RAturn 2019 - TCXPI's Trips To The Motherland - Ghana

My personal journey TCXPI's Trips To The Motherland - Ghana. My second trip home, occurred September 11-22, 2019. 

TCXPI made its first trip to Ghana in Spring of 2018. We made the decision that if we could, we would RAturn every year. 

Fall of 2019 was a similar yet different experience during our visit. 
In my next several blog post, I will share a bit of my visit.
