I heart Tuesdays
So I have rearranged my schedule so that I can have Mondays and Tuesdays free of classes to enable me to travel about on long weekends if I decide to. So yesterday I sat around for a good while before deciding to hit the beach and go to dinner. Today, I was ready early with a plan. Since I am one of few people with such a sweet schedule, I woke up before 7 to run (yes 6 AM is the only time that it is both cool and safe enough to run around) and then did another bucket shower (I am becoming a pro) before going to a nearby pool. Stayed there pretty much from 10AM until 5 PM. I think in those hours I managed to change ethnicities. Just kidding but I did get a little burnt. It would be a good thing to wear sunblock when living on the equator huh? I went back home before going to dinner at Redd Lobster ( yes, with two D's) in Madina with a friend. And that ladies and gentlemen was my day. Not so shabby. I do plan to do more traveling in Accra and Legon and exploring the tro-tro system ( they are like conversion vans but carry like 22 adults crammed together for cheap fares) but today I just needed a pool and a book. Tomorrow involves class and dropping classes and then it is off to Kumasi and Mole Nature Preserve. I promise pictures of this and Cape Coast. Good times in Ghana.
