Heading back happy

It's Tuesday morning. I'm leaving for the airport in 20 minutes, so I'm not going to write much. I'm thrilled about the election. The importance of what happened in Quebec cannot be understated. The Conservatives came second in 37 ridings and won 10. It is a really important day for federalism in Canada. I think this government will last longer than most minorities, because the Liberals are mired in debt and leaderless and no one wants an election.

I'm happy to be heading back to Ghana. It's a lot easier than last time, because there is way less uncertainty. I'm sad to be leaving home, but knowing what's on the other end makes it a whole lot easier. I have a six hour layover in Amsterdam tomorrow, so I'll post something from there. That's all for now. Take care, keep checking this, see you in June.
