We arrived in Accra, Ghana at 8:40 a.m. after a flight of eleven hours. Mr. Aquatic was waiting for us to drive us to Ada. He has been our chief officer of protocol, driver and friend for the past several years. We were hurried out of the city due to the presidential elections and they were concerned for our safety.

The first stop we made in Ada was to stop at the library that we built for the people of the community. We had the building built and delivered over 5,500 books to line the shelves. It was a beautiful sight to see the libary painted and with the handprints of the children around the outside of the building.
