Hi Ruth!
I'm still in Ghana.
Today was another day that's not that interesting to write about. I had to go back to Burma Camp this morning, because I made a silly mistake on Monday - I brought my letter to the wrong office! But the people in the right office today were very nice about it, and promised that they would call me next week to discuss my research, after they had looked at the letter asking them for permission.
But, I took the tro-tro all the way there and back by myself, and didn't even get lost! Which I thought was pretty impressive. Unlike the buses here, like the number 3 that we sometimes take, the tro-tros aren't usually labeled. But the simple thing I learned is that if you just ask people where to find the one you need, most everyone will be very helpful. Sometimes you just have to wait a little while until you find one that's going where you need to go - but so far, not as long as we wait for the bus at home!
The rest of the day, I did some reading and writing. And then, because I miss you and Mommy, I didn't eat Ghanaian food for dinner, like more of my goat soup. I made peanut butter and jelly sandwiches.
I also have been eating a lot of peanut butter. Glad to hear you are finding your way around Ghana better each day. By the time we get there you will be a 'native.' Know that both Mom and Ruth are enjoying each other very much! love,

Peanut butter and jelly is always the way to go. Your Mom so enjoyed being with Ruth for Grandparents Day. She tells me Ruth enjoyed the cookies. Sharon and I heading down to see them next Saturday.
