Arrival in Accra
Greetings from E-quip Africa in Ghana!
We are here! Harold, Mary Jo, Dennis and Doug arrived at Kotoka International Airport Tuesday evening at about 7:30 and stepped off into the heat and humidity of West Africa. The trip though immigration and customs was uneventful and very welcoming.
We are staying at a very nice hotel with a lot of native wood--very beautiful construction. The breakfasts are included--cooking is great--and the coffee is brewed! (The usual here is Nescafe instant!)
Wednesday was spent traveling the streets of Accra to banks, print shops, restaurants and pharmacies--we need malaria preventative for Harold and Mary Jo. The highlight of the day was our visit to the Methodist Conference Center of Ghana, located in "Wesley House" in Accra. Dennis was really in his element here! We met the Executive Bishop of Ghana (Rt. Rev. Kow B. Egyir) and the National Director of Education (William Davis). They were most welcoming and are looking forward to partnering with E-quip Africa.
Today we will see the Kwame Nkrumah Shrine and drive down to Cape Coast where we will stay the next two nights. Ralph and Rachel will join us there.
Until next time...
Doug
