Travel time, it's travel time.

A good traveler has no fixed plans, and is not intent on arriving
-Lao Tzu


So here's a small post just to let you know what we'll be doing for the next three weeks when we travel. We'll be leavin Ada on the 17 Dec to travel to Cape Coast. While there we'll be visiting two slave castles and what ever else we can find. Then on the 20 we'll be heading Tamale. In Tamale we'll be volunteering for a man called Dr. Abdulai, who runs a free medical clinic and is also a part of a food program cooking and brining food to the homeless(I'll be volunteering at both places later). Every Christmas he has a big dinner for all the "poor" in the area. We'll be helping by preparing the food for a few days and on the 25 distributing it. From there we'll leave on 26 to Mole. We're going to Mole National Park to see the wild life in Ghana. On the 30 we'll travel to Baobeng, Feima Monkey Sanctuary. Jan 2 we'll travel to operation Hand in Hand. It's shelter for the mentally and physically handicapped children. We leave on the 4 of Jan to Bouyem to stay at an Eco village where we'll be able to hike and see some caves. From there on the 7 we'll travel to Kumasi to stay there for a week as a retreat. We'll use this time to center ourselves and get prepared for splitting off and going to or volunteer placements. That about sums it up, it's what we planned but you never know things can change. I'm excited either way. Thank you to everyone for your support and letters and for keeping in contact even when I'm not always able to respond. Thank you. It's nap time. PEACE AND LOVE.
