Battle of the tro tros

Today we managed to get the day off (4 day weekend!) And headed to korforidua. We went to a really nice waterfall about 45 mins out of town (where we found the cocoa). All was going well until we got on a tro tros (basically a mini bus) going back to town. Soon after we got on we stopped pretty sharply to pick up another couple of passengers. Unfortunately another tro tros was following close behind and had to stop quickly. Something the driver wasn't so pleased about and let us all know by shouting as he drove past, slowing up so we could catch them and emergency stopping himself. Very mature. We then had a bit of a drag race where the other tro tros almost pushed us off the road! This really annoyed our driver and one of the passengers. So much so, that when we both next stopped they went and started throwing punches at the other bus driver. Not cool. The rucus died down after one driver had been hit in the face with a bag of water and the other a handful of sand.
It certainly made the journey more exciting! Less so when we made it back to the depot and it all started again. We made a swift exit and went to the bead market before the storm, which had been brewing during the journey hit (pathetic falacy?)

  1. Still, probably better than the 179 to Wythenshawe, eh?
