Where's the Ghana Wildlife Society?

We don't have class on Wednesdays, so we split us to do research and reporting for our projects.

I had found a website for the Ghana Wildlife Society, but there was no email address or phone number. There was an address though, so I figured there would be no harm done if I simply showed up. My friend Sam had nothing to do that day, so she decided to come with me.

Many streets in Accra don't have addresses, so directions are given based on nearby landmarks. So based on the directions from the website, we told the taxi driver to take us to Efua Sutherland Children's Park after bargaining for a better price.

The cab dropped us off at the park, but there was no obvious Ghana Wildlife center. So we started walking. We found a church and asked for directions, but the security guard had no idea where we were trying to go. So we kept walking until we found a collection of government ministries. We walked into the Ministry of Culture, and there were able to tell us that the Wildlife Society was past the library.

At the library, they told us it was around the corner. Around the corner, they told us it was just up the street. Just up the street, they told us it was through the next gate. After asking each person that we met for more specific directions, we finally found it. After waiting for a few minutes, I was able to schedule an interview for next week!

We rushed back to meet our vans, which were taking us to a craft market. We wandered among the stalls, admiring carvings; jewelry; drums; and fabric. I was able to purchase a lot of my souvenirs and bought fabric for future dresses.
