I finally arrived! It has been amazing so far. The people here are very nice and full of personality. When I arrived on wed I was greeted by a swarm of adorable children who all told me their names which of course I didn't remember. Then I was taken to the dinning room where I found another volunteer. Before I came I was worried about being all by myself but God has answered my prayer. I am certain that while I am here I will not have to worry about not having a good christian community. Even without Anna there are so many friendly interesting people who love to talk. Yesterday I got introduced to the school. All the children are very cute and all of them know my name already and are constantly yelling at me. They always run up to me and holding on to me or trying to touch my hair. They are fascinated by how pale and blonde I am. I hope that I can learn all of their names soon, they are already starting to quiz me.
       Last night was really fun the girls who live in the house came and hung out in my room.The power was out so we grabbed my flashlight and read the books that I brought. The girls are so fun they have lots of personality and love to sing for me and make me sing for them.
      Today was my first venture to the cities market. It is intense, there are people everywhere! Cars also don't stop so you have to be really careful of your surroundings. Not only do you have to watch your feet but you also have to watch your head since everyone carries stuff on their heads so you have to make sure you are not in the way. The culture here is really fun. Everything is bright, colorful and full of life.
       My friend Anna the other volunteer has started a fundraiser for the school here to get one of the buildings finished please look at the website and share it with others  www.AClassroomForAll.yola.com or fb www.facebook.com/aclassroomforall thanks!
     Please pray for my continued safety while I am here.  For the school and that God would continue to bless the family in charge Gladys and Peter and that he would supply the funds to finish building the class rooms.  Also pray for the children that go to the school that they would grow to have strong relationships with God. Thanks!

There is exactly three weeks left until I leave. I just got my travel details from when I arrive in Accra to how I get to Kumasi. It sounds like an adventure. I will meet someone right once I get off the plane and then stay the night somewhere in Accra and then hop on a bus to Kumasi in the morning.. by myself. Luckily I have had similar experiences when I was in Ecuador. At least I hope they are similar. The bus will be eleven hours long so I will get to see a lot of Ghana. After three days of traveling I am sure that when I finally arrive I will be ready to finally get there.
On a different note I was very productive today and got almost everything done that I need for the trip. Now I really just need to get some malaria medication and the rest will be easy peasy.
