A short walk barefoot through Accra

First I wanted to write in German but I'll start in English, sorry to all of them who won't understand :-) Last Friaday I celebrated a small Goodbye party in my host family with some friends. Hannah came and helped me to prepare a german meal: Semmelknoedel with Schwammerlsosse und Bayrisch Kraut! It wasn't easy with these circumstances but it tasted similar to the original and I was very proud and happy to get something to eat which is surely without meat and fish. It was a great evening.. It makes me sad to think bad, I'm sorry.. It wasn't easy to leave Tepa at the next morning and all of my collueges (Fatao and Yaa and of course Isaac) came once again to say goodbye. Oh I nearly had to cry. But the tears didn't come out and I went to Kumasi to meet with Thomas at STC, the big bus station. From there we started our journey, first to Cape Coast. 

We stayed there for two days and visited the Castle and enjoyed the beach. But down there it wasn't a nice view: everywhere there was rubbish and waste in which pigs searched for food. Therefore we decided to travel along the coast to the west. Our destination: Busua, a small village behind Takoradi. We arrived there in the early afternoon and rest at the wonderful beach for the rest of the day. Next morning we walked along the ocean about one and a half kilometres till big stones we couldn't pass. I collected a lot of shells for you Debo! After two days it was enough, also because the weather changed and Thomas wanted to arrive Accra in time to do some things there. 

Yeah and now I'm still here in the capital and not happy about. The first evening I was really shattered, I only wanted to go home, whether home to Tepa or home to Germany! I wrote Isaac and Yaa some texts when I arrived at the cities and Isaac was worried about the information I gave to him on this evening. He called me yesterday only to ask if it is alright! Very cute, and I miss him, Fatao and Yaa a lot. Also yesterday Hannah has arrived here in Accra and I'm very happy about! In the evening we only rest and enjoyed some food and drinks. Today we wanted to go to the souvenir market but all of us don't feel well. I got a cold of the air conditioner! Only because of a british girl, who turned it on all the time when I have turned it off! In the morning I was so angry and thought about beating her! Tomorrow I want to meet Waltraud once again but she is still not here in Accra, she wanted to call when she arrives but me phone is off and we haven't got light. Without electricity I can't do anything! And at last: I have to buy new shoes urgently! But here in Accra it's very expensive. They wanted to get 30 Cedi! Debi debi debi! That's too much! ;-) 

I will be back at home on Sunday morning and I hope I will get cheese and yoghurt and maybe it's possible to celebrate a barbecue party! Food is wonderful!
