Today is the official May Day holiday in Ghana. Although it is a school and work holiday, Tracy interviewed a former director of the Christian Council of Ghana at his house at 9 AM. The rest of us came along thinking that we could occupy ourselves while Tracy was in conversation. Near the house, we saw a hotel that promised “Internet Café.” Bingo! We pulled up and asked the security guard how we might make use of the internet café. His response: “Oh, that machine is not working. It is finished.” Consult Google Maps. I found another nearby internet café to which we drove. But, either the sign was missing or it is now closed. After turning around in a dicey part of Accra, we drove back to the house and simply waited outside. Mark read a book, Catherine wrote a book, and I checked email.
Thereafter, we celebrated May Day by mini golfing at Marvels, which was much closer to the interview location than to our flat. It was sunny and hot, very hot! We took a break after the front nine to take lunch. Catherine and I got holes-in-one on the same hole! Photos of everyone below.
