Kumasi children

Today we finally got a good night's sleep - we are so lucky to be staying with Flo, Marilyn's friend from the Sunshine Volunteers organisation. She also made us better French toast than they have in France, leaving us ready for many school visits where we dropped off school supplies such as books and pencils. The kids were absolutely precious - their energy, smiles and curiosity are so contagious (despite the +30°C heat). They did also always call us "obruni" meaning white people which took some getting used to at first. As it would be impossible to be mad at these adorable little creatures we decided to just go with it and call them "bibini" (dark person) as well, which gets them all shy and laughing. They also asked if our blue eyes were real, and the ones who weren't actually already called Kevin suddenly decided they were now gonna have the same name, too. However, too much text if images speak louder than words would be a shame so this is where we tell you to just look at our photos :)
