A roll of toilet paper

This week we have been celebrating 10 years that LDS Charities has been involved in this Audiology Program.  We are down to our last few days.  They say that just like a toilet paper roll, when you get to the end, it goes faster and faster.  We are discovering how true that is.                  We decided to take a photo of our Primary, but for some reason, only 12 of the 37 were here for our last Sunday.  We love them!  Yes, that is Alma, the Branch President's son with his tongue out.  They presented us with a beautiful Ghanaian dress and matching shirt.  

We were at the Accra Mall and saw this delightful little girl trying to decide which earrings she likes best.




When we went to the temple grounds on Saturday, they were having a wedding and this was the car the bride and groom were leaving in.

I have been taking some shots this last week of things we find interesting in Ghana.  One oddity is how people lay down anywhere...fences, walls, grass, or the middle of the sidewalk to take a nap. Everyone just walks around them.

Above is a dump truck full of workers going somewhere.  Just like tro tros, trucks are always loaded with people.  We are truly surprised they don't fall out.  John has decided that when he passes away, he wants a sign that says he has transitioned to Glory!  Often we will see Called to Glory, also.

The mosque (below) is coming right along. It is so large and will serve the people across the street who are so poor, like these two little boys standing in front of their very small home.

The children here are so precious.  We love the curly braids on the daughter of the Primary President.

We will post next about our last week of celebration here in this beautiful country.  We are hoping that when we leave this next Thursday, we can keep the co-operation between our Ghanaian and US programs alive.  We will truly miss Ghana.
