I arose about 5:30 and went to fetch Felicity to open the internet café. Generally her upload speed has been about 400Kbps but GT was having problems the last few days and upload speed was only about 30 Kbps so we continually disconnected if we used the video. We got a glimpse of each other and then switched to audio only and talked for over an hour. Hopefully we will be up to speed next time.
By the time I returned home, and changed, my jog didn’t start until 9 AM and the day was clear and my route is entirely exposed to the sun. Even at that time of day my shadow is only about 4 ft. tall! With no water stops alone the way it is amazing how much more energy is taken out of you in the heat and direct sunlight. I was out of gas at only 5.5 Km. and walked home.
Sunday is a rest day because English service starts early, but the children were to go with us this morning and were not ready on time. You wouldn’t believe the bank of speakers in the sanctuary, about 10feet square with about 10 speaker boxes piled on each other and the mate on the other side of the auditorium. It is VERY loud. Without a doubt higher than WorkSafe regulations would allow without ear protection.
After church the Pastor joined us for a ride home making 7 passengers in the CarinaE, which is not at all uncommon in Ghana. I stopped for petrol at the Total station and bought ice cream for everyone. The little ones were very careful and managed to keep it all inside their bodies and not inside the car.
I met with Emmanuel in the afternoon and his production is delayed a little bit, but we solved the rubber stamp issue and decided on getting some new samples, which he will send to Canada for inspection.
