Ghana, Day 14 - Post Office wo ho

Hi Ruth!

Yup, still in Ghana.

This morning, I had some meetings. Well, I was supposed to have meetingS, but instead I only had meeting. The last time I was here, getting to the Kofi Annan Center took a very long time, so I left very early. But they built a new road, and so there was no traffic and we got there very fast. So, I told the man at the gate who I was there to see, but that I was very early, and he said that he would let the person know and I should have a seat. So I read for a while... and then after more than an hour, the man came back to tell me that the person I was supposed to meet wasn't in town!

Then I went over to the Ghana Armed Forces Staff College, where I'll be teaching one day while you're here (maybe you and Grammy and Grampy can meet me at the beach afterwards! The army gets to pick where it has its places - and this one is right near the beach). I talked to the army officer in charge of all the teaching about what I was going to teach.

And then I headed back to campus. I stopped by the Embassy to see if any of the mail you sent me had gotten here yet, but it hasn't. ::Sigh:: But I dropped off another postcard for you and a letter for Mommy. And then, when I got back to campus, I put another letter and postcard in the mail for you, but this time in the regular Ghana Post:

From Where in the World is Dad?


So, it will be like a race! You'll have to tell me which card gets to you first!

Medo wo.

  1. Dear Daddy,
    While you were at your meeting, I had a meeting - with Miss Julianna at Patterson Park. She told me all about bees, and we pretended we were bees and got the nectar and honey and flew like bees and I made a paper bee puppet.
    Ma Che, Daddy. Got to bed at the nighttime and don't ask me if I have to go to potty.
    Love,
    Ruth
