Toronto to Frankfurt

 Angela, Leah, Barb and Cindy
 Lyle, Cameron, Joe, Owen with Bobby a Ghanian, husband of Jennifer, PO's travel agent

Saturday July 5th.
Packed up early this morning and we took our luggage with us to the Father and Son Restaurant that we used last year. All 52 of us had breakfast there. Alex brought his car and loaded our luggage and Sierre Leone's too as we are both going to the airport right after the last session this afternoon. The bus picked us up there and took us to CTF. Most of the sessions today focused on health and safety and what to do if you get into trouble. We had a great bbq steak or chicken lunch and then we had a special visitor, Barbara (who ran PO for years and retired last year) and her husband Bobby. After that we broke up and all said our goodbyes. We loaded up in taxis and headed to the airport.
The flight to Frankfurt was long and uneventful. I couldn't sleep on it except for brief snatches. We arrived in Germany at 6:30 am their time and midnight our time. So now we have jet lag, no sleep and a seven hour wait for our connecting flight to Accra to contend with.
The other Ghana group left Ottawa at 10 pm and flew to London. They will meet us in Accra.
