I think you've got me confused- my man's name is Awal.. and we just booked up a ticket with KLM that should arrive on the 15th!!!!!

Aubrey, what airline do you plan on using and how soon is before Irenious arrives?

what airline are you going to use?

what airline are you going to use?

Prolly KLM- it seems to be the cheapest right now..

So get this- I was quoted a price of about 1000 on the Ghanaian website, but when I called, I couldn't buy it with my American billed credit card!! They wanted to charge me... drumroll please.....3000!!!! Who knew? Not me anyways.... So I have to send money for Awal to buy the ticket which is kind of a pain because he just got back to Tamale......Sigh. But the worst of it's over, so I'm happy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm praying he'll be here sometime in the next week!! :dance:

Too funny! Irenious is *my* husband! :D Though I understand how you could get us confused. Both of our men are from the northern regions of Ghana.

Aubrey, have you tried having Awal talk to the travel agents in Accra?

*repeating*

Kanyiri and Irenious....Aubrey and Awal....

not only that, but my grammar was a wreck too!

Im sorry *blush*

Haha, that's too funny! No worries!

And Kanyiri, Awal actually knows of a travel agent in Tamale that can get the cheaper ticket price. He called Accra, and they wanted 200 dollars more than in Tamale.... only the Lord knows how airline ticket prices work... lol. But he's all reserved, I just have to send the cash money money western union, which kind of sucks, because there's not enough time to do a wire.... but again---I DON'T CARE!!!! HE'S COMIN' HOME!!!!!
