Today the Big Red started work on the worksite. There were 4 groups that were divided into: Concrete, Electrical, Carpentry, and Painting. We worked From 8-12. Then, we made our way back to the bus and had lunch. Instead of working the whole time, some of the boys in electrical taught some kids how to play duck-duck-goose. Cole Tomichek and I somewhat mastered the art of slapping concrete onto a wall with the help of a local mason who was very good at what he did. On the bus ride back to the hotel, it started to rain, which unfortunately changed the temperatere from hot and super humid to a little less hot and even more humid. Then, about 5-6 boys walked out to a tiki hut on the hotel property and played cards. The meals today were very authentic to Ghana. For breakfast we had; porridge, hard boiled eggs, mango, and toast. For lunch, we had chicken and rice on the bus. For dinner, we had rice, stew and plantains. Then, unfortunately, some boys started to set sick after dinner and missed day 2 of work. Overall, it was a fun and amazing day in the beautiful country of Ghana.
