The simple things in life...

The day was off to a good start when we woke up for breakfast and saw that there were some new items introduced on the menu, many of the girls were excited about oatmeal and I was excited about the French toast. The French toast was the first thing I had eaten in a long time since I was sick the previous day and it tasted great!

After breakfast Jaimie and Ashley headed to the clinic, Lauren and Tara headed to the private school and Patty and I went to the computer lab again to teach. Most of the B Akoto students have never used a computer so we decided to do a basic lesson on the mouse, this seems like something simple but for them this is a whole new world.

Before lunch the other girls and I decided we should work on our tans outside in the courtyard of the hotel, this attracted some strange looks from the locals, wondering why on earth we would want to sit in the hot sun for fun. After another tasty meal with French fries and fruit we went back to the village for tutorials. I was happy to see that the computer lab is now complete with a fan installed on the ceiling and monitor for the broken laptop, everything is coming to together! Our trip is getting closer and closer to the end but I feel like we will be leaving a good note and a good sense of accomplishment.
