Last Tuesday Julia (a woman who works for latitude) and her husband, and henry came to visit me and Brittany at the school to see how everything was going. We told them about the fact we were hardly teaching and they said they would speak to the headmaster about it which is good. (however it has been a week and very little has changed!) on the bright side, we started football club this week and it went really well :) we took class 5 and class 6 who are about 10-12 years old and walked with them to the local community field, which is beautifully placed next to a picturesque rubbish dump with vultures circling overhead haha the kids really seemed to enjoy getting a chance to run around and even two of the teachers decided to play as well. I of course was terrible but enjoyed watching Brittany beat the teachers :) On Saturday afternoon we all went to meet Julia and henry at raybow hotel and then for dinner at acroma plaza. After the meal, Julia and henry left and we decided to go to a beach bar, which was really good fun until 3 of the girls decided to leave and about a minute after they left we heard a really horrible scream and it freaked everyone out. It turned out it was just one of the girls had seen a frog! But even so, we were all a bit edgy after that so we left soon after. Sunday was really good, Kennedy (one of our host familys friends) took me Brittany and mingwei to a football match at sekondi stadium. I was surprised how nice the stadium was! We watched kotoko (Ghanaian team) play a team from morocco. Kotoko won 3-1 and i was laughing throughout the whole match at how much Ghanaians go mad at ANYTHING that happens in a football match. They score, they god mad. Someone falls over, they go mad. Someone is substituted, they go mad. It was really funny, but then at the end of the game when they had officially won, everyone just left, no one cheered or celebrated, it was really weird! Health wise i am fine (touch wood) although my feet have been swamped with mosquito bites and its very difficult to resist the urge to scratch them L im on my 4th book already, and we have a bit of a book swapping club going on now J also mum, i remembered the name of the dan brown book we couldn’t remember, i saw it in the airport, its called deception point. Sad news – the kitten died L fern and Margaret buried him at their local beach, im glad he never lived at our placement because they seemed really upset so im glad i never got too attached to him.
Hope everyone is well, missing you all! And thanks for all the comments ive been getting its good to hear from everyone xxx
