I declare today a holiday

Today I woke up just like any other morning, but there was one big difference-the sky was very dark. Eric started singing the rain song and shortly after his song, it started to storm. I still needed to get ready for work, so I went into the shower during the storm. During my shower, we lost power. Jen, Grace, and I decided to have a holiday today and only work in the office because when it rains in Ghana, life usually stops. During bad storms, children do not have to go to school and most people do not expect you to go to work.

Last night, after spending a few hours in the office, we decided to head home for dinner. On the way home, we met some little children shouting Obruni at us. I decided it was the perfect photo-op, so I attempted to talk to them in Twi. They were really excited, particularly about the touchscreen on my camera. When we got back to the house, we indulged in some American television from Grace's laptop. I have never been so excited to watch an old episode of Modern Family.
