Obama gave a farewell speech in Ghana, and we got to attend!
Unfortunately, I couldn't get to shake Obama's hand, but I did get to Michelle! I prefer her hand anyway.
The PCTs were lucky enough to attend as well as current PCVs and US employees in Ghana, such as embassy workers. You can see a few of the other PCTs in the pictures, but I couldn't find myself in there. It's not surprising because I was behind three tall guys. :(
Oh well, the speech was amazing, and I got to meet a lot of volunteers that aren't involved with training. Overall that weekend was very cool.

That's so neat! I watched his speech on the CNN website (Good-bye Ghana) and saw all the PCVs yelling and waving their hands. Was her hand nice and soft?
Love,
Mom
It sure was!
Hey Katie,
Deb and I were recently in Egypt on the day of Barack's speech (June 4) in Cairo. It was a pretty exciting day --- most Egyptians had the day off and Barack's helicopter landed in the back parking lot of our hotel and he ran in and changed clothes! Big secret.
