... with your hands. <br><br>20. At least once you have been in the middle of showering when the water cuts off and you have not taken the proper precautions of filling up a bucket before hand leaving you a big soapy mess.<br><br>21. You have tried to breathe fire by taking a drink of apateshie and then breathing into a lighter to try prove that apateshie is not liquor, it is rubbing alcohol in disguise.<br><br>22. In addition to that, each time you take apateshie or palm ...

... weeks of me trying to correct him I gave up. <br>So we were walking to catch the tro tro and we hear. Running! Running! <br>And here comes coxmox from across the street. <br>(this event of coxmox yelling running and then running to come and shake my hand happens on a daily basis)<br>Anyway, coxmox was going to the gate too to pick up something for his family. <br>So we got the privilege of taking that walk with coxmox who will endlessly try and ask you things in English ...

... around us didn't attract a billion malaria mosquitoes and this place wasn't sketchy, but it was. We were literally the only people there. Everywhere around us is dark since there's no streetlights or city lights or anything. We eat our Ghanian food, I had rice and beans which weren't bad, then we get back in the van. Ni said he hadn&#8217;t been to the restaurant since he was young and that it was a lot better then, he said it really went downhill ...

... getting used to. It is basically just water in a bag&#8212;but it is insanely cheap. You can get 30 bags (.5 L each, the size of an average water bottle) for GH¢1. that's about 30 bottles of water for 80 cents in the U.S. <br><br>The room here smells worse than the last one. I&#8217;m glad my roommates gave me air freshener to come here. It is coming in handy&#8212;thanks girls! <br><br>Since we had to move, we didn&#8217;t register for classes today. We&#8217 ...

... to the beach to bring Philips daughter a book and some pencils. Philip had to prove to the mother of his child that he was actually taking her to the beach by taking a picture of us together.<br> <br>We were planning on going the museum after but it closed at five so we went to the mall. The mall was very western. The stores had different names but you could have been at Market Mall in Calgary; except for the food court in the center, it was open air. We visited a ...

... in the service it felt like the service only lasted half an hour. Today is our last day to explore on our own before classes start tomorrow. We have a super busy schedule for the next few weeks, so I think we are going to take a trip to the beach for the rest of the day. Hope everything is going well back home. I will try and write again soon. Thanks so much for taking the time to follow my trip.<br><br><br><br>Lots of love,<br><br><br><br>Derek<br><br>

... I told her what happened. She was angry with Yafowa. Eventually, she showed up, and I was able to relax. Kwame and his friend showed up on his friend&#8217;s motorcycle. Everything just got confusing after that. They said they were going to town, and we should meet them there. When we got there, they were gone. I guess Kwame&#8217;s friend didn&#8217;t want to wait, so we just went home.<br><br>One of the mornings, I worked on some drums with Uncle. He taught ...

... non-stop, is not easy. Anyway, so Uncle let me wear his smock (eventually I'll show you pictures of a smock) cause I didn't have any costume clothing, or any Ghanaian clothing at all. I got a lot of weird looks, some of intrigue and some of "wtf!?". I am now a minority and quickly becoming aware of it. I don't mind so much. For now, I kind of like the attention, but I have a feeling I'll become sick of it quickly. The guy who hired Uncle's group was late, GMT, so we sat ...

... typ det forsta stangslet jag har sett i detta land sa han kom inte at mig men haret i nacken och pa armarna reste sig, jag har nog aldrig blivit radd for nagon hund tidigare men denna var riktigt acklig. I torsdags var jag i Elmina, en grannby, och tittade pa ett till slavslott och det var lika skrammande som det jag sag i onsdags. Guiden var en torr typ som bara malde pa och jag tappade fort intresset pa att lyssna sa jag hm:ade lite da och da och tittade mest runt. Sedan stallde ...
