This is Easter Morning, they were singing and dancing down the main street of the village. (As you can tell not my village notice the paved street!)

Pineapple growing in the wild.

Some of the PCV's at the toga auction.  Suzanne Linda and I bid and won a trip to Accra to jump the bungee's and ride bumper boats, then have a dinner at the Deputy Country Director house.  Looking forward to that.
From our room overlooking the Dutch and English castle where it was turned into a slave holding and shipping building.  Sad stories, but learn that 1/3 of all slaves went to Brazil, 1/3 went to the Carribean, and 1/3 to the rest of the world including America.
One of many statues I found in this little fishing village.  Very poor and women are not encouraged to go to school only the boys.  But many can make money right now by fishing so many do not go to school. 

Can't believe it but my battery is dead and won't charge up on the computer and of course no where to stick the chip!!!  More to come!!!!
