Accra by Day & Night
(Ghana is 51 years! Click the website here!)


Accra is the capital of the small, West African country of Ghana, which achieved its independence in 1957 from its colonial master, the United Kingdom. It celebrates 50 years in 2007, and is projecting itself fast and furiously as "gateway to West Africa". It's an exciting city, with its unique problems, but with it close to the Atlantic ocean, and many beaches, who can resist coming here? Come along...

No radio in the Ghana taxi?


How about television instead?

    I think that is so dangerous... here I allways ask to turn off the TV everytime I take a taxi with such a device!

    P.S. Our flags have the same colours: mine is divided into green and red, having a yellow coat of arms in the middle :-)

    JM--I agree! It is dangerous! Nice to know you and I's country's flags are similar;-)

    Kris--when they guy switched the tv on when his radio failed him, it seemed like he was switching it on for me! He put it on one of our private tv stations here that was showing music videos. I guess it's good when there's the traditional x-mas traffic--then he won't miss the news!;-))

    babooshka--too right! Ghana produces many firsts. Maybe this is one of those!:-))

    That's a little scary. More and more, multimedia equipment is becoming a part of car culture in America. It's strange to see families speeding down interstates with movies showing on a small screen like those you'd see on an airplane.
