Welcome to the MIRTHE in Ghana blog

Finally, finally, finally, I'm posting something on this blog :-). Thanks to all the Princeton folks who made the packing and shipping of QCLOPS a lot easier than it would have been.

QCLOPS was taken out of Princeton on the 6th of March, 2009 and arrived in Ghana on the 9th of March. Yes, we were all surprised as to how quickly it made it over. The next question was how quickly we could get it through customs. That also went smoothly. By the 13th, both QCLOPS boxes were at the University of Cape Coast. This is the site of our deployment.

We started unpacking on tuesday, the 17th of March and had the system running by evening time of the 18th.

I was given a hearty welcome by the folks at the laser centre. Working with them has been good.
