Day 11 – by the whole team
We have continued with the Poultry Farm project, with the chicken coup almost complete. Also, the whole group met the Chief (Nana) and we decided to have our own Chief and Queen Mother within our group, Tim is Chief and Abbie is Queen Mother. Today we are going to the market in Cape Coast where we will all be starting to buy our souvenirs.
We have looked back on the time we have spent in Ghana and considered the similarities and differences between this culture and our own.
Similarities:
Bread
Love of Football
Love of children
Advertising is all over the place
Differences:
People are more friendly
Animals roam free
Gospel church is very lively
Oranges are Green
Things are carried on your head
Water comes in bags
80% of the cars are taxis
We are missing home but having such a great time! Looking forward to the next ten days.
Love from the Bennett Memorial Team
