Having Auntie Vicky home has been good, but we are still adjusting. I think she is trying to do things that we would have liked to do the first week when we arrived.. It is nice to eat meals with her, usually it is just Talia and I at the table for meals.
This morning (Friday) I went to a school in Adenta, a small town outside of Accra, with some friends to help at the school. There were 5 volunteers w\and we split the children intro groups of 8. We had them read a story and then answer questions and then had them write about their childhood memory. The kids seemed so interested and participated in all the discussions we had and also seemed to appreciate having more one on one attention with a teacher.
This weekend I am going on a trip sponsored by the Business Department to Nzulezo (a village built on stilts on top of the water), Virgin Island and to Ankobra Beach. Taking trips sponsored by different groups is really nice considering we are able to meet new people and having transportation provided to these places is a lot easier!
Also this weekend we are going to Beauty and the Beast, I am excited to see how it turns out. One of my friends is in it and said the rehearsals have been going really well but everyone seems to be tired with all the rehearsals.
If you have any questions or are wondering any specifics about Ghana or anything just leave a comment and I would be happy to tell you. I will continue updating my blog with the trips I have taken but please don’t hesitate to ask questions, I would love to tell you, I just would like to know what interests you!!
