I am online today for the SECOND time this week which is pretty cool so I'm writing a little. I just took a classic taxi ride to the market: first of all, the taxi drivers stop and do errands for themselves without telling you. Second, the windshield always looks as if it was just in a gang shootout. And third, the infamous windows. So you know the manual handles on old car roll up windows? In this taxi there was only one handle for all four doors so the driver passed it around for each of us to attach to our doors and use it like a wrench to roll down our windows. and then they make you pay. oh Ghana.
We ate lunch at the University Cape Coast campus today and it was the best restaurant yet(out of the three that are safe to eat at in cape coast). Our orders took less than 2 hours AND the sauce wasn't spicy enough to burn straight through clothing. The highlight was at the end of the meal when I saw a door that said "washroom". The door led to the outside. Do the math.
My little sister, Kiki, is nuts. She runs into my bedroom at 630am every morning and yells, "You need to bath!" I mumble, "I bathed last night" Then she says "LIAR!"
she recently discovered the song "Umbrella" and sings it all day while dancing to my ipod. She also enjoys sitting on my lap while I try to do my homework while she draws pictures all over it.
Food is going well now because I am sticking to rice. When I have a stomach ache, my host mothers consoles me and says "I'll make you fried fish!"

HI Sweetie, You need to take this show on the road! (Oh, yes, you are already on the road!) Seriously, you're stories are really entertaining and descriptive. I am really enjoying hearing all the details. Have a good time in the north of Ghana. Miss you, love mom
I'm with your Mom - you're a funny kid in case you didn't know. Also.. tell Kiki that I say hi the next time you see her. Also tell her that Umbrella is not a good song and she should open her mind up to some more of Rihanna's greatest hits. Oh. And I still love you.

Danielle! Thanks for such fun posts! How old is Kiki? She sounds so cute! It's raining/icing, snow still on the ground here. Enjoy the warmth! Love, Nancy
