Prampram-- for the Turtle Conservatory Resort

 When the Powells came out last summer, they had an unforgettable experience watching the newly hatched turtles go out to sea and made sure some newly laid eggs got put in a protected place. Our trip didn't quite have the same experience.

We started out early with Eugene driving.

It wasn't too long of a drive and we actually made good time and got there before noon. Eugene got an uber back to Accra and told us he would be back at 10 am on Thursday morning.

We met the lady who takes care of the turtles and she told us the batch had just hatched the day before. The information on the website is close but not exact as the turtles decide. She said the weather is the biggest factor and the more hot it is the longer they take to hatch. The time in the egg is shorter if it is colder. Interesting.

I asked all kinds of questions, she was very nice to answer what she could.

We looked around at the animals they have here and couldn't resist taking a picture of the tortoise and the hare. No running today. Just good buds.

This is the closest to turtle watching that we got for the week. But there were other great things about the C Resort. Good food, lots of entertainment, and a really spacious room. 

The Room -- Wow

Going around the room......

The space was large enough for three king size beds - with room between them

And a finishing touch, the turtle keyring

I set up a jig-saw puzzle that I had gotten from another missionary.

A fun thing to do in the heat of the day. The evening had a nice breeze and was very comfortable. We went to dinner with the Wilson's whom we had told about this place and invited them to come along.

Delicious food!

When we unrolled our placemat, we found out silverware. I think my sister Sharon should check it out.
