the dollar is up!

For all you statesiders lamenting the economy, I wanted to share some good news: the American dollar is now more valuable than the Ghanaian cedi! This was not the case when I arrived two weeks ago, and means that my 30-pesewa tro-tro rides, 40-pesewa mangoes and 1.20-cedi beers are now even cheaper than before. Anyway, I would love to stay and discuss economics some more, but I have to go max out every ATM I can find before exchange rates fall again.

God bless America!
