Had breakfast. Had class. Then we went to the W.E.B. Dubois museum. The museum was actually the house that Dubois was given by Nkrumah when he was asked to move here to Ghana. He had two burials, and his second and last burial is next to the museum here. It’s in a little circular house with stools that are carved that mean different things that were in important to Dubois. Also, the ceiling was painted like a spider web, because spiders are considered the smartest and most creative insect here in Ghana. After the museum, we went to dinner at a beautiful outdoor restaurant. I ordered boiled yams with a cassava sauce and chicken. It was definitely interesting. The sauce, was more like a spinach with cassava shaved over it and the yams have no taste, they taste like potatoes. I put on a lot of sauce but that didn’t really make it better so I just ate chicken and some other people’s plantains. We got home and our internet still wasn’t fixed. We haven’t had it for 5 days. Hopefully they will fix it tomorrow. When I got back, I just did homework and hung out with the girls and matt for a little bit.
