1. Prepare some Artemisia tablets, (this is only available at the epidemic prevention station) is the treatment of malaria, the most common disease is malaria. There are also some common cold and fever and treatment of diarrhea and other drugs. There is a lot of cool oil over there.
2. If you have time to get vaccinated, in fact, if you do not get vaccinated, it is the same, if you do not stay a long time, it does not matter, the entry does not look at your yellow book.
3. There are two seasons, the dry season and the rainy season. You can go there now, it's hot, but it will rain and it will be cooler. But when it thunders over there, the power goes off temporarily. I don't know what's going on, but the power goes out during thunderstorms when I'm over there anyway.
4. Bring a long sleeve is good, do not need to bring more, there is very hot, basically depends on where you are, if you are from the north, past the beginning of certainly not used to. But it's by the sea, so the heat is a kind of dry heat, as long as you stand in the shade, not by the direct sun will feel much better.
5. And, I guess you are going to Dubai transit, from Dubai side, the domestic three plugs will not fit, there is a British standard socket, you have to go to the supermarket to buy a converted power outlet, this is very critical, otherwise you can not use your laptop anything, the socket is 3 feet upright, many countries are so, including Singapore, and European countries.
6. The essential items are not easy to say, how long you stay there? The first thing you need to know is whether you're going on a business trip or on your own business trip, or whether you're being pulled over for a business trip. It is best to say clearly, but the cell phone to store some songs, with a laptop, and then a few books is a good choice, you can bring a few high compression disk over there to watch TV can only watch the central 4, the network speed is also very slow, basically 256K, but you can wireless Internet. But it is more expensive, more than 30 dollars will be used up soon.
7. The phone does not matter, basically now the mainstream domestic phone, the channel is available there. The phone call back to China is about 0.2 cedis a minute, because the exchange rate is often changed, basically in the 20 cents U.S. dollars a minute or so.
8. If you don't speak good English, it's good to bring a little something to translate, and a lot of translation software on your cell phone will suffice.
9. Try to less unnecessary luggage, the reason is very simple, you start from Dubai transfer is basically all blacks, the end of the plane is the capital of C?te d'Ivoire, Abidjan, a plane of blacks, all bags, are purchasing to go back to the next plane to find luggage on the exhaustion of you. Customs is very black, rarely do not check. The more things the more likely to be found fork, is to want you to tip.
10. They only accept the new version of the US dollar. When you go to the bank to change dollars, pay attention to say, is 100 dollars is a big Washington head, not Lincoln's, huh, I can not remember, anyway, used too much money, on the dollar image is not deep. The bank should know. When you change dollars, remember to change a few $5's, $10's, small dollars. When you go out for the first time, if you are given a hard time, you can't help it, just give 5 or 10 dollars, but don't give too much, or you will be in more trouble. Keep your money in a separate place, put small money where you can get it, and put it in your inside pocket if it's in 20 denominations. After arriving, if someone picks you up there is a place to stay on the good, generally looking for hotels don't be too cheap, at least look for that 40 Saidi a night, otherwise it is not safe. The money to go to the exchange point, the daily exchange rate are written there.
11. The working hours there are until Friday, but Saturday morning will work half a day.
12. There near the sea, in addition to Tuesday (the custom, fishermen do not go out to sea on Tuesday), and weekends, other days you can drive to the beach to buy seafood, very cheap, the domestic grouper is expensive to death, the cheapest time, I bought 3 of them for about 6 dollars.
13. If you go to Accra, the big market there is centered around the circle, a big roundabout, and there is also the biggest coach station there.
Anything you need to know, just ask me again. I hope this helps, don't wander around by yourself at night, there are a lot of small roads with no street lights at night there, and the gutters are not covered, so be careful of falling in when you're drunk. Driving from Accra, take a highway similar to our national highway, about 25 minutes or so, you can get to the neighboring port city of Tema. There are quite a few Chinese bars there. It's usually about a couple dozen dollars for just drinks. If you want to play other things, not so much. Oh. It's recommended to go out in groups of two or so, so you don't get robbed. The police there are very black, but you tip very obedient, traffic police, too, running red lights, I used to be 10 U.S. dollars, I do not know the price now.
