Our second trip to Delhi was more or less a "business" trip. Our main purpose to be back in Delhi was to get our immunization (Yellow Fever) and our Visa for Ghana. It was relatively smooth process, however, if Danso didn't have a Ghanaian name, and family there, it could have been a challange to get the visa in India.
much thanx to my cousins owusu and paa kwesi for putting us in touch with the ghanain ambassador to india. when we were in delhi previously we tried to get our visa but they wouldn't even let us in the gate without a long laundry list of forms and misc. documents. it represents all of the difficulties that indians and most other people in the world have getting visas. once we had the ambassadors name and cell number needless to say things went smoothly and we had our 60 day visa for ghana.
immunization was smooth if you call a 5 hour wait in sultry conditions smooth. we figured there may be a few people showing up for yellow fever vaccinations at the hospital during the two innoculation hours. we should have known by now that in india there is now such thing as only a few people. all and all it was a very well organized system.
armed with our ghana visas and bloodstreams full of (supposedly) latent yellow fever virus, we were ready to book our train to mumbai where we were flying to ghana.
