The Streets of Accra

Every time I walk through the streets down here, I feel as if I'm wandering the pages of a National Geographic magazine. Little shops selling mangoes, bananas, and groundnuts (glorified peanuts) line the streets. Goats and chickens run by me as I walk. The only down side is the lack of sidewalks. Since being in Ghana, I have not walked on a single sidewalk. Normally, this would not be a problem. Ghanaian drivers, however, haven no remorse for accidents. If you're in the way, they beep at you. If you don't move, they hit you. It's honestly walk at own risk over here.
