I lied! I'm back today - had to do some work placement stuff online. I only have a couple of quick observations to make...
1. Ads here are a lot less skanky. I noticed that today, watching the billboards fly by. It was like...hey...everyones wearing clothes on those billboards...wtf?! I mentioned this to Hannah and she'd noticed it to - she even saw a skin lotion add and the woman wasn't naked! I would like to know a bit more about why that is...
2. I was cursing my strong gag reflex today for the second time in Ghana (the first was eating cocoa for breakfast - this is not a food I'm found of). This time it was walking through the market near the open sewers. The stench was incredible - almost as bad as walking across a bridge yesterday over a river that smelt like one giant outhouse (probably because it's used as one). I know Kingston's messed up with waste treatment before, but all of a sudden I have a huge appreciation for indoor plumbing.
Ok, my internet time clock is clicking down so that's all for now. I'm hoping as I become less overwhelmed I notice more little observations which I can share and hopefully learn more about.
