Ouagadougou - Day 254

Date: April 29th, 2010
Distance: None
Country: Burkina Faso
Song of the Day: Santeria - Sublime

Went to the Ghana embassy this morning. Things went pretty well there. They did want 4 passport photos though. Sheesh. Still, I got all the paperwork turned in and it should be ready tomorrow.

After that I headed back to James' apartment. He has to work, so I headed upstairs to talk with another guy, Rene. Rene was working for James, but is heading back home to Puerto Rico for a bit. I think he is a little burnt out here. I guess the two of them have been living in Burkina for almost 4 years. So he was a little scattered, but still a lot of fun to talk to. We spent most of the afternoon together talking about life in Africa, religion, and Philosophy.

After work, James came over and hung out with us. We cooked some mac & chee (lovely western food) and watched Wonder Boys. Actually it took three laptops before it could play right on the screen and speakers we had. Once it got going though, it was a fun evening.
