We said our sad goodbyes today at the Volta school. It has been great to get to know a few of the really talented, amazing vocational students. I think we trainees are even more excited to visit our own sites, and meet our students, who we will work with for the next 2 years. Tomorrow, we head back to Kukurantumi at 6am, and then on to Bunso, where we will meet our 'counterparts' from our respective schools. I hear there is pizza in Bunso, and I might be ready to spend some serious Ghana cedi to eat some.

afternoon free time activities include jumprope, drumming, cartwheeling, etc.
afternoon volleyball (it turns out I'm terrible at volleyball--too much standing around waiting for the hard ball to hit my arm; reminds me of the dark days of junior high gym class)
