Accra Airport

So time to leave Asebu. Of course we had to have prayer time to give thanks for our shared time together. Then its farewells with big hugs from the children.




I do feel ready to come home though even if there are some mixed feelings about saying good bye to people who have looked after me so well.

We had a good run to the city, stopping off at the eldest daughters school to drop goods off. However as we reached Accra we hit the traffic, the noise, the street sellers everywhere though it was just beginning to cool off a bit. Having left plenty of time it was not a concern. But sadly just as we were delayed friend Joseph who had returned to Ghana from my afternoon congregation was delayed so we never had chance to meet up.
  Checking in was very quick this time and thankfully luggage okay weight wise. Will worry about dragging two suitcases across London when I get there.
So finally chance to sit down having gone through immigration- they don't tell you to fill a leaving card until you are at the desk so back you go and start again. Of course I got grumpy person telling me off. Next time much more welcoming. 
I hope to have a good sleep on the plane as I feel now really quite tired though excited about getting back home to see Jill. I guess its going  to be the opposite experience when I land at Heathrow. I will be hit by the cold and the speed of going through immigration etc will be fast. 
The next few days will be time to reflect on everything so keep reading.
