Month: March 2023

Day 76. Abidjan. Republic Cote d’Ivoire (Ivory Coast). Sunday 5 March.

Poor Jen. Today has been a day of rest. Complete rest for Jen. She has been suspecting a bad cold or flu being imminent. Overnight, it arrived. She has a temperature, is very lethargic and confined to bed. Dr Adam is keeping a close eye on her, checking all the…

Day 75. Saturday, 4th March. From Hotel Berah, Yamoussoukro to Residence Bethany Palace in Abidjan, Ivory Coast.

Breakfast at Hotel Berah was underwhelming. Bread and croissants with strawberry jam and tea/coffee. Too much bread. We seem to have bread with every meal. It is giving me a spare tyre. Especially as we are doing little exercise. Got to stop! It was overcast and humid this morning. Most…

Day 74. Hotel Les Tropics, Daloa to Hotel Berah, Yamoussoukro, I.C. Friday 3rd March

All these hotels. Must be costing us a fortune! Well, not really. This one dearer than the last, with not a lot more for it, but at €38 it’s not too bad. We’d have trouble renting a tent site for that, in the UK. So, only 140k’s today. A lateish…

Day 73. Thursday, 2nd March, 2023. From Hotel Amointrin in Man to Hotel Les Tropics, Daloa, Ivory Coast.

Hotel Amointrin included breakfast in the price. It wasn’t very exciting. A few slices of omelette, bread and marmalade and hot drinks, tea, coffee or chocolate. It was adequate though. Adam had messaged us to say he wasn’t leaving his hotel until 11.00 as he was waiting for his laundry…

Day 72. Nzerekore, Guinea to Hotel Amointrin, Man. Ivory Coast. Wednesday 1 March 2023.

Our camp site tonight was under a couple of huge Mango trees in the Catholic Mission in Nzerekore. You could say it was convenient. Not peaceful though. Before closing up for the night, there were huge cumulus clouds billowing above and lightning flashes. Mmmmm. There must be 10 mosques close…

Day 71. Tuesday, 28th February, 2023. From Guekedou to Nzerekore, Guinea.

Leaving Guekedou We set off on a beautiful newly surfaced road. Not having gone far, we approached 2 groups of people standing on either side of the road. Suddenly realising they were in military uniforms and one has his hand up to stop us, we screeched to a halt. We…
