I was lucky. My luggage was tagged priority so it was out of the chute quickly. I use Global Reentry so I get to skipped customs which made me the first person out of customs. I then went down to recheck my luggage to Boston.

When I lived in Ghana, there was one Chinese restaurant. Now there are many, but I have yet to see Chinese in any of them. There were Ghanaians and many Indians. I didn’t know what to expect, but the food was really good.

Accra used to have several Middle Eastern restaurants when I lived there, but I only found one last year where I could have hummus. I ate my first Indian food in Accra, but I didn’t see any last or this year. The guide book said there are some fine Italian restaurants but i didn’t go to any as I can have Italian at home.

I was glad I could take you all with me!

It seems so strange that two only days ago I was in Ghana. It was difficult to leave not knowing if I’ll ever get back, but it so good to be back home.

There is nothing quite like curling up in your own crib after a long journey.

Arriving in the US and having to transfer to another flight is a nightmare all its own. Whenever I have a tight connection my bag is always the last one to come down the chute onto the carrousel, I wind up at the end of the line at the border checkpoint, there is only one TSA agent at security and I have arrived at the furthest distance from my connecting aircraft’s gate.

Thanks so much for your posts which I appreciated during your trip. Asians have settled all over the world and have opened Chinese restaurants everywhere. The quality goes from wonderful in Hong Kong and in Vancouver BC, to very good in the US. The worst Chinese food I have eaten was in Brussels and in Dubai. I think the Asian owners took a culinary detour through Holland.
