Last Week

I cant believe it is already my last couple days here, while the days seem so long, time went by too quickly! This past weekend we did the most unbelievable thing possible, went to see elephants. If you know me at all, you know my irrational love for elephants, the first day i arrived here, I showed my elephant tattoo to John and asked him, will we see elephants, and thankfully we did!! The trip up to the elephant home was quite the journey, one day it was 7 hours to Kumasi, a large city, that was tiring but promised many treats, such as nutella tasting chocolate and twix (my first twix ever!). The second day held for us 14 hours of travelling, all of which I did not have a single drop of water for fear of needing to pee the whole ride. Going up north was interesting though, the environment changes completely, while down here there are mostly houses, up there it is mostly huts, and there is surprisingly more cheese (something that is not ever seen in Ho). When we got to the Hotel it was late already so all we did was eat some dinner and most of the people went to sleep. Me and a couple of other kids sat down with some irish girls that were teaching here for the past 5 months, after that we jumped in the pool for a bit and got kicked out of the pool
