We have arrived safely and wanted to give everyone a quick update...we will write more tonight. The flight to Accra was a memorable one with lots of interesting people on board. We then took a 5 hour bus ride to Kumasi and met up with a Japhet's sister, Grace. Japhet is with the Adakum Foundation that Kelli worked with to build the health clinic.
It is so good to be back in Africa. The people are friendly, the weather is warm, and the markets are alive! Just seeing all of the sights brings a big smile to our faces. Our hotel includes breakfast, running water, air conditioning, a giant bed, and wireless internet. These are all special treats for Africa! We made friends with a very nice guy who served us breakfast.
Please stay tuned for more updates in 10 hours. I am sure we will have lots to report on. Kelli will be going to the microfinance bank today and Amy is off to an orphanage and school. Please comment on our blog, and feel free to email us! Love from Ghana!

Amy...how crazy is it that you are in Africa right now...and I am in Africa as well!! We are on the SAME continent...yet we are not together...it is both happy and sad at the same time.
ReplyDeleteI just want you to know that I am super proud of you for going!! I started crying reading your blog which was really good for me because I feel like I haven't cried in a while...so it was so nice to get to cry!!
I started crying reading Kellis story and then once I got to yours, the flood came. :-)
I cannot wait to read more and possibly cry a little more as well!! What are you doing at the school and orphanage???
