Today we met up with our group from Edmonton and learned a bit more about what we will be doing. We went on a campus tour which was great.
We went out this evening to watch the Ghana Black Stars play in the World Cup. We went as a group to the theatre to watch the game but after making it through a giant crowd/mob of people we discovered the tickets were sold out. A little disappointed, we decided to find a place with a TV so we could “experience the culture". There was a fast food chicken joint with TV's so our group had three tables and we watched the game. Unfortunately, the Black Stars lost in a shoot out but it was a good game, especially when they were winning. The atmosphere in the restaurant was insane, indescribable( very similar to when Edmonton was in the Stanley Cup Finals a few years ago!). It was really exciting and full of energy, it was hard to not smile.
