Holiday

Day Eight
Monday, May 25, 2015


We slept in late on what was a national holiday in the US and in Ghana – Memorial Day in the United States and African Union Day in Ghana.  ITTU was closed and we were unable to work in the shop.  We spent the morning and afternoon at Kejetia Market, one of the largest, if not the largest, open-air markets in Western Africa.  Some of us bought fabrics, but for the most part we just walked around the tight, crowded alleyways and browsed the thousands of small shops.  We ate lunch at the cultural center, and returned to the SMS Guest House in the middle of the afternoon.  Upon return, we held sub-team meetings to prepare for the coming week.
