Happy Independence Day everybody!  Ghana has been fantastic so far, although it was a bit strange visiting a slave castle on the day the U.S. gained its freedom.  Yesterday we went to church at Ramseyer Presbyterian Church in Kumasi, after that we went to buy some kente cloth.  In addition, we met with Comfort and Joe Sarfoh's family in Kumasi.  We presented gifts and they fed us with delicious meat pies. 

Independence day itself was very long, we drove from Kumasi to Cape Coast which took about four hours.  We stopped at an area where slaves were given their last bath before being sold. It has rained periodically throughout the day.  Everybody is safe and healthy and enjoying their time, however we cannot wait to come home and see our loving families. 

P.S. Congrats to Connie and her husband on their anniversary!

Glad to hear everything is going well with the group.
Tell Kathryn, Laura and Leslie that PJ and I went for a few brews to celebrate the 4th and PJ is quite a story teller with few brews under his belt. Best wishes to all and safe journey back to the US and to Geneva. Harv
