Today at school we sang more songs and also made thankyou messages on large A2 paper to Anna Ryder Richardson for all the T-shirts she gave me to give to the children who were so happy to receive them ,i gave about 50 T-shirts to the school children and the rest went to a very poor community over the other side of Lake Volta

The children loved having their hands painted :) 
They also loved the glitter glues and foam shapes of flowers and butterflies etc These children were only used to using a pencil which they sharpened regulary and blackboard work to a tatty exercise book so this was a real treat to be using big white paper , lots of different coloured paints , paint brushes ,glue and coloured glitter and foam shapes for their pictures :)
It was lovely to see the children enjoying themselves in school .
A Job well done by all the children !!!!!!!
In the video below the children thank Anna Ryder Richardson for their T-shirts :)http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VZuLrS1reP0
LOTS OF VERY HAPPY CHILDREN BELOW WEARING THEIR MANORHOUSE WILDLIFE PARK T-SHIRTS FROM ANNA !!!!:)
Below is a photo of a typical taxi in Ghana ,they usually had us all packed in like sardines as many as they could fit in ,no seatbelts and cracked windows was quite normal actually this one was an unsually good one and they would always have music blaring something like the artist Shaggy singing or some kind of Reggae music ,loved it !!.Then usually a policeman would wave us down and collect his money in some form of a bribe from the driver ,ther were road blocks everywhere we went apparently this is what they had to do to make up their wages ,they had no income from the police only a house .
Tonight all the volunteers decided to go out for a meal in a nearby village called OBO just a taxi ride away , we jumped in a taxi to have something to eat, drink ,dance and just let our hair down :) 
Some of the volunteers from the Chief`s Palace house where i was staying in Atbie ,making our way to catch a taxi :)
When we arrived at PointRoyal in OBO village some of the local children showed Jack and i how to dance the Ghana way :)
Thes boys really knew how to dance like so many Ghana men ,woman and children.they loved dancing and moving their bodies :) 
Unlike me !!...........
After we were well fed and watered we went back to the house some hanging out of the boot of the taxi which like i said is quite normal even in the rain ,it usually rained at night in Ghana which was a blessing or we would have no water in our tank to have a wash in the morning !
