Ghana Day 1+2

So after being on the plane from Atlanta to Accra for 11 hours, we landed at the Kotoka International Airport. Getting our bags and passing through the customs people was nerve racking. I almost couldn't find one of my bags *tear*. But then as we were exiting the airport, there were beggers and hecklers trying to help us to our car, but we insisted on NOT needing their help. Dr. Williams and Leslie told us not to pay them anything. One guy was like, "you got any womens magazines? i like Oprah, Ebony, ya know?" others were asking for gum, it was a crazy little time around the car. Then we all piled in and headed to the house. The house is so nice, it has a huge Brick wall with barbwire on the fence. We also have a security guard who opens and closes the gate every time someone enters and exits. Pretty cool, but it makes me wonder how unsafe it would be hadn't he been here watching our house. I love the house on the inside it's so big and comfy. Then once we all got settled in, we went to this restaurant called Chez Afrique, it was bomb and the chicken was super spicey; but still good. Everybody had beers and pineapple juice but my lil self had a sprite ahha Then after dinner the band played and we all got up and danced. Lots of people were there dancing, it was raining low key but not too much. There were some missionaries there as well. No marriage proposals yet, but I'm still waiting. I saw one really cute Ghanaian. The boys will smile at you until you look and smile back it was so cute.

Today Day 2, we woke up and went to the Accra mall and I got my very first Ghanaian phone and we ate some pizza, it was cool. Then headed to the grocery store, there stuff is expensive ahah lowkey but now I'm trying to save money. Now I'm sitting with most of the group across the street from our house at the hotel and it took them forever to have the wireless work on our computers.

Katy Perry - California Girls [ Lyrics ] HQ

"California girls
We're unforgettable
Daisy Dukes
Bikinis on top
Sun-kissed skin
So hot
Will melt your popsicle
Oooooh Oh Oooooh

California girls
We're undeniable
Fine, fresh, fierce
We got it on lock
West coast represent
Now put your hands up
Oooooh Oh Oooooh"
