No School

The kids had a field trip today to play football at a local park, so I didn't have to teach. I went with Boat to the internet "cafe" and helped him apply to universities in London. I don't think he realizes what it takes to get into a university. His grades aren't so great...I hope he can figure something out.

I'm feeling a little home sick since I've been alone this week. I'm excited for Katja to come back so I'll have someone to talk to. She's staying with a family near Accra and observing at a school there.

The kids take a picture of me eating dinner most nights, so I have plenty of pictures of typical Ghanian meals.

Breakfast! Bahflots and porridge made out of maize

An egg, bananas and MILO
