I'm still in Ghana. I'll be here a while, but I'm excited that each day brings me closer to when I see you here!
Today, I thought I'd show you my walk to work from the apartment I'm staying in.
This morning, right out my front door, there were a lot of birds!

These guys aren't normally there. But this morning, there was someone out on a tractor mowing the field, and I bet he was disturbing lots of yummy, yummy bugs for them to eat! So they were following him around.
After I leave, I take the shortcut to the road around the building my flat is in, under this big tree.

Sometimes, there are flowers under it.

Once I stop to take pictures of the flowers to send to you, I come out on the big road near the flat, which is Barimah road.

From there, I don't have to walk far before I'm on the "main drag" of the campus, which is J.B. Danquah Road:

And then it's only a little way to where I work, right here!

When I get there, I try to work hard, so I can make you and Mommy proud of me. Then I come back to the flat and miss you. See you soon and love you, medium-sized girl.
Ruth,
ReplyDeleteDaddy shows us lots of pretty places to play and have pick-nicks! Peps, your great-grandfather, used to tell Daddy how very proud he was of him - for his efforts in bringing peace to the world. Peps would say that he was proud of you and Mommy, too, for taking care of each other.
Love.
looks quite nice and quiet. Is the campus surrounded by city, suburb, or rural area? thanks for sharing. It is very nice of you to take the time and effort to share though all your thoughts and pics with Ruth and all of us.
ReplyDeleteLegon is a suburb of Accra, out past the airport. Near as I can tell, most of what's out here is the university.
ReplyDeleteI, too, enjoy seeing where you are and following your route to class.
