Here’s one I’ve never had before at the hotel. Today, I met a man and his wife who came all the way from Ghana in West Africa. I thought he said Guyana, which created a lot of confusion at first.

It’s amazing to me. I told him it really is a small world that people from Africa should come all the way to my home town in Nashville. And he said that it is getting smaller every day, which seems so true these days.

The man’s name is Kofi, which he explained means he was born on Friday. All kids get a name based on the day of the week they are born. I asked if that isn’t confusing when his mom would call you in for dinner. Doesn’t every other Kofi turn his head? He said it’s probably their dinnertime, too.
