We have arrived!

Hi all,

 

Just a quick note to let you know that we have arrived in Ghana.  The flights were good, just tiring and I didn't sleep well last night so hopefully tonight will be better.

 

Our apartment is nice - the bed a little firm, but we will get used to it.

 

Kim -- Pres. Kradofer just is in our office to meet us, right now as I am writing this.  (He was Kimberley's mission president in Arizona and we are now working with him).

 

Ghana kind of seems like the other parts of Africa that we have been in.

 

Mom -- we have already met someone from Nigeria that remembers you well.  I cannot remember the person you said you wanted us to look for if we got the chance.  Write and tell me.   Anyway, we met Charles Ajeigbe who was a young missionary in Lagos.   He is now the head of a dept. here (computers, phones, etc. - I think).  He is a very nice man.

 

It is hot (but not too hot) and humid.   We went and exchanged money this morning and then to the grocery stores with another couple.  We live just below the Area doctor and his wife so we should be well taken care of if we have an issues.

 

Must run.  There is a potluck dinner with the couples (for us) tonight.  There are 8 couples plus the area presidency.   Haven't had a chance to say hello to Elder Dube yet - may see him just now as we head down from our office.

 

Love you,  Mom and dad/Nancy & Jim

Glad to hear that you're making progress but too bad about having to deal with a cold during the ride. Hope it goes away quickly. Did you get any meds?
It rained quite a bit here the other day, did you guys get caught in any of it & is that what caused your cold? Sounds like this week is supposed to be really nice weather here so let's hope it follows you there as well.



Tara & I are supposed to leave for this coming weekend so we're looking forward to that but unfortunately I haven't even worked since last Wednesday morning and it's causing some tension with budgeting plans. Hopefully some shifts come my way this week.

Happy riding and hope you get well soon :)
