I'm Here!

I'm in Accra at the IVHQ central volunteer house.  There are lots of other volunteers here - most in college - I feel very mature.  :)

On the long flight over I did end up with an empty seat next to me, which was great!  I was met at the airport then driven through Accra.  Lots of people selling things by the side of the road, women walking with all manner of objects piled on their heads, goats, dogs, lots of references to God, lots of good-natured car honking.  So far, it's great!

Had dinner here - yams with stewed greens of some sort.  Pretty good.  The sun goes down about 6:30, and we have to be up at 6:30 am for orientation.  Just had a cold shower and I'm headed to my bunk bed.  Looks like people head out to individual projects tomorrow.  Akwaaba!  (Welcome!)
