Accra - from the airport to OSU
A beautiful darkness. One that comforts you in its ability to be solid yet light. Sitting on our packs at the back of a truck..this night air was the perfect blanket for fresh skin and a fresh mind.
Car horns honking unaggressivley yet frequently to speed the flow of traffic. Music blaring out windows. Through the streets men and women gracfully weaved through traffic selling thier goods which rested on thier heads with such eas.
A wonderfully chaotic..harmony.
At the Salvation Army we were blessed with running water, a toilet and matresses. We were once again in a womb.. a shelter.. a crib I suppose..
