After staying in Friday night and resting, I was ready for some fun on Saturday. I went to the beach with Lauren, Akrofi, and Larteh, who works in the office with us at the Institute. We had a great time relaxing, and I went swimming for a while and then went for a walk down the beach to dry off. It was exactly what I needed!
Unfortunately at the end of the week we ran out of gas for the stove, and when we replaced it, the gas started leaking. So, I had no stove for the weekend. We ended up doing most of our cooking at Laurens and having dinner/movie nights.
On Saturday after dinner I got ready and we all went out to Reggae Night at Big Milly's.... of course. As usual, we hung out, had some drinks, enjoyed the music, and danced until the night was over.
Sunday morning was perfect for sleeping in. After a breakfast of oats I did some laundry (by hand of course) and put my things out to dry. I then joined Lauren and Maame Esi for a walk into town. Lauren had decided to get extensions put in her hair, and we went on a search for the right color hair. After finding it we went to a small salon for a few hours while she had the extensions put in. They came out great!
Being at the salon convinced me to get my hair braided like the last time I was in Ghana... perhaps this upcoming weekend I will get them done! It does take all day though.... :-/ While Lauren was getting her hair done I got to play with the hairdressers baby boy Chief. He was so adorable!
After dinner and a movie that night it was time for me to pass out and get some rest for Monday- the first day of my second week of work!
