Today we are in a small village close to Akosombo in the Volta Region. We are staying in a place along side the Volta River. There are lizards, frogs, and bugs everywhere! The river here is much like our Fraser River, only wider and with a slower current. We have a brief stop here to see the worlds largest man made lake and the Volta Dam. It is very hot here - 35celsius, and very humid.
This morning we visited a junior high school and a primary school just up the road from where we are staying. We introduced ourselves as well as told them a bit about Canada, what we are doing here in Ghana, and gave the teachers books and a soccer ball for the students. Thank you to everyone who donated supplies for these children. They are so grateful!

Praying for you family for health, safety and that you would have an amazing time. It has been great to follow the blog and see how you're all doing.
Thanks for keeping us updated! It was so neat to beable to chat with Ray, all the while in Ghana. Technology still amazes me sometimes. I can understand why Vasco was so freaked out! I was relieved to hear Michael recovered so quickly! I will pray for continued favor as you travel thru those scary check points and for continued safety as well.
I was sad you did not get to meet the King again! Too bad.
Miss you guys! Look forward to more up dates! And will be relieved when you arrive home safely.
Hugs!
