First Update from Ghana Gappers!

Our April Gappers in Ghana have finally arrived and settled into the Ghanaian way of life. Check out there very first blog post!
Well we are at the end of our induction week and more than ready for our family. Seth and his family have been more than accomodating this week and I think Felicia's cooking is going to bring us back to Accra some weekends. We have all now experienced the real African way; bucket showers and eating with our hands.

The locals here are so intrigued by us, and our skin; we are definately not tired of waving millions of times a day to the local children as we pass them on our travels. Especially at the beach, we were swarmed by dozens of local kids wanting us to pick them up and play with them in the waves. It was more rewarding for us to see the smiles on their faces than for them actually having the satisfaction of being thrown into the waves.

This week we have had drumming and dancing lessons on the beach, an amusing experience watching Sean and James attempt to let their body flow to the rythmn of the drums. Felicia has also given us some cooking lessons, which hopefully we can take with us to our host families.

We are all now feeling more climatised to the heat, and we are all ready for the amazing journey which now awaits us with our family.

Thankyou Seth, Tina and Felichaa for preparing us for this experience - And Renos (who we named Demitri) who babysits us in the back of the ute and has now becomed more of a friend than a leader.
