For this update, we will let the pictures help tell the story of our time here.
After the street party, we got to announce to Gifty's family that her dream has been sponsored! (allowing her to go to school for another year) |
We stayed one night at a beach to "catch our breath" from the busyness. This is where we ate our supper and breakfast. |
Enjoying the magnificent Atlantic ocean |
Helping some locals pull in a net of fish (this was not a successful catch) |
Our boat ride to the island where we stayed |
The grass huts we slept in |
The boat ride back to the van |
Rebecca is helping a girl with her new t-shirt before we head out to the market for the Assurance of Hope Dream day! |
After shopping (for 41 kids in a busy market), we took them ALL to a pizza restaurant for lunch. |
We visited Kakum National Park and walked on 7 rope bridges like this one. |
