Day Eleven

Sunday we all woke up early because the sun comes up so fast near the equator. Eric came and picked us up and took us to the school where we had breakfast and went to church. Church was so amazing! The song leader was really getting into the songs. The service was in English and Twi, pronounced tree. Twi is one of the many languages spoken here. None of us had ever been to a bi-lingual church service before so that was cool. After church we had lunch and and then looked at the computers. We stayed at the lab for a while and then we left to go back to the house. The cooks had finished preparing supper early so we took it home with us. The power went out at 6 so we had supper in the dark. After supper since we didn't know what to do Ray read us his huge story about the market. While Ray was still reading to us Samuel and his house guests came to great us. He brought us a flash light since the power was off. They left and Ray continued to read to us but we were again interrupted by Emanuel, the grounds keeper. He brought us candles and matches. When Ray finished reading us his story we decided to play spades. Playing cards by candle light was very enjoyable. When the power came back on at 10:30 we were glad for the fan but playing with the lights on wasn't as elegant. We went to bed at 11.
