NANA PICKED UP HIS VISA FEW HOURS AGO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I AM SOOO HAPPY I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH MYSELF. to be honest, i was worried because ghana has a history of telling people that the visa is not ready due to "broken machines" etc. well not this time! ahhhh, it feels so good! anyhow, we are trying to figure out what day he will come, which should be the weekend or monday....i mean, why wait any longer????? :innocent:

interestingly enough, on the bus to accra (nana lives in kumasi which is 5 hours away), the bus broke down, and nana ended up taking a taxi for 3 hours!!!! it was crazy but he made it and he has his visa!!! YAY!!!!!!!!!! i will let you all know when he arrives.

YAYE! I'm so excited for you guys! I know that when I hear those words that my baby has his Visa, I'm buying a ticket for the next thing smoking out of Ghana! I just got back from Accra on Monday, the 17th and I had to fight myself after 18 days with my honey, I couldn't stand to leave, I cried for the last 2 days I was there (I'm a big baby) and I can't wait to see him again... if the flight wasn't so stinking expensive, I'd be there every weekend... LOL! But I guess everyone feels that way! Anyway, CONGRATULATIONS! Let us know how he is adjusting, please!

I have finally met my love and my best friend... I can't thank God enough for this gift! After spending 17 days in Ghana with my love, I am even more consumed by him and all that he is.
