We got swarmed by about 30 children. They all wanted to touch Emily's hair. Some girls braided it. And they wanted to touch her skin. They liked to squeeze her arm and watch it go pink and then go back to white.
We saw a little scorpion thing too (anyone know what they are called). It was dead, but now we know they are here.
Stephen Abu, the dad of the family we are staying with told us many stories about joining the church and starting in this area. Everyone calls him Master Abu or dad. He says we are his children.
"Dad" showed us his farm. It is just like a movie. He has cocoa trees and we had fresh cocoa seed things. They have lots of pineapple, papaya, BIG avocado, bananas (though they say they aren't good), plantains, cabbage, coconut, big potato things and yams. Oh and also lots of goats, chickens, hens, bunnies, and a dog just had puppies three days ago.
The power was out when we first got here, so it was HOT in the house. There is no AC but just ceiling fans.
Sorry we won't be able to post many pictures. Our internet is slow and also limited (we only have 5 gigs of data.
Anyway, life is good.
