Time to head back to Jordan Nu. We got on the road. Originally we were going to stop in Accra and shop, but I think everyone really wanted to get back before it got too late. When we were getting in to the city, right in front of us, there was a trotro that got hit on the side by another vehicle. It smashed the glass, and pushed the trotro up on the curb on the left side of a center median. It didn't seem like anyone was hurt, but the trotro looked full of people (as most of them are).
After getting past Accra, Emmanuel pulled over and looked at one of the wheels. It had a hole in the side, and if you put your finger on it, the side of the tire started bulging out! So, that had to go. Then all these kids come out of the wood work. Megan reached for her bottle of bubbles, and kept them occupied for some time :-)
Again we crossed the Adomi bridge, but this time before we did, we stopped at a restaurant just up the shore, Aylo's Bay. They had a bunch of drums there under a shelter, which says something about what nights are like there. I had Talapia fish.
The football team was going to have a match with a neighboring village. The small boys cut down the grass with very long knives in the field by the church. The white guy is Dan's son visiting for the month. He was pretty good too.
