Day 74 (tuesday)

Me and a few of the sociology/social work faculty.

Woke up at a decent hour and had some pancakes and half a cup of coffee (the water boiled off) and then took a shower and finished packing my things. Peter picked us up and we drove around campus for a bit to run some errands and then headed to the engineering guest house for the final lunch provided by some of the social science staff. Kwadwo and a few others joined to see me off, it was really sweet and a wonderful gesture. Kwadwo took us to the bus station and this time we got to take vip instead of anything else and it was absolutely wonderful. We stopped along the way at a rest stop and I got a little dish of fried rice, unfortunately it was pretty terrible. The roads were about as nice. The main road from Kumasi to Accra is really bad and because it is such a main road, it has gained national attention. The president will begin reprimanding people if the project isn't done by the end of the year but I don't see how they could do it. We made it just fine and my initial impression of Accra was that it was very busy and there were several tall buildings everywhere. We got to Maureen's place and it was a really nice place and I felt very welcomed.
