Day 12

Then Wednesday brought the Sports Day... it was a beautiful mess of kids: 120 of these running in random directions, dancing, singing, and jumping up and down. The music was so good - African style Hip-Hop blasted out of huge speakers all day. Once we'd handed out all of our sweets and biscuits and prizes (and the cheeky things had stopped asking for more) we set off for more shopping in Cape Coast. Material for dresses, shirts and trousers, jewellery and tonnes of biscuits were piled into our bags and eventually 11 of us were able to cram ourselves into 2 taxis. One emergency stop for a flat tyre later and we were back home for freshly made chips, pasta and our staple tomatoe sauce. Thanks Bernice!
