Finally made it to Bolgatanga, met up with Katherine and Laura for a drink on Commercial Street, in the Street View Spot. And what a view we have right over the open ditch. Which unfortunately did not see before I fell in. Yes that's right walked straight into an open ditch. 
To be fair it was dark and I was on the phone. But these Ghanaian men are so strong one just got hold of my arm and lifted me right out.
Anyway we had to buy sachet water to wash of the gunge and what a sight I was. At that point we didn't realise the extent of the injuries.
At the hotel we had to sneak me into Katherine's room, luckily she had hot water and we managed to get some salt and do a hot salty water soak.
The foot just wouldn't stop bleeding the next day I had to go to hospital. To cut a long story short cause it took me all day in Hospital. To be told possibly broken toe, torn tendons and bruised ribs.
I thought I better leave Bolgatanga before I cause any more trouble and got the night bus back to Accra. I had to sit at the front and have my foot elevated all the way.
