Thursday

We had a meeting at 10 this morning with the main people involved in our newspaper. Because the meeting started at ten, two of the six people showed up at 11 and one didn’t come! No big deal though, as we had a productive session when everyone arrived. We need to do some more market research and creation, but I think this will work. If this is done properly, it has the potential to be very profitable, while serving a very valuable social function at the same time.

After the meeting, I met up with Martin for lunch. We went to this place I’d heard of and I got a bacon cheeseburger. With a fried egg on it. It was so good—far and away the best burger I’ve had here. I could taste barbecue sauce. I think we’ll go back on Sunday or Monday.

Nothing much else to say, other than that the tro-tro mate (the guy who collects money) when we were going home tonight couldn’t have been older than 10! My flight is Wednesday night at 10, so I’m debating whether or not to go to Accra a day early, just in case. I’ll decide over the weekend, but I’m leaning towards just going on Wednesday. It’s going to be a long haul. Three continents in just over 24 hours. Plus I am heading straight to Shawnigan when I get home. Fun. Til next time.
