Day 3

This morning I woke up at 6, the kids were loud. I finally got up at 6:45 and bathed and got ready for the day. I walked over to the guest house for breakfast and there was a white person there (until then daddy and I had been the only white people). I thought that was odd since the Preston crest group wasn't supposed to get here till tonight. A Bible teacher from ACU, his wife and two students came over this summer. The teacher taught a class at Heritage Christian College, the students were taking the class. One of the students was here last year. They had been in Ghana for a while now and came to VOH because their host lives here. They left after breakfast to go the the canopy, and the slave castle.

After breakfast we went up to the lab to start working on something. Daddy found a virus that clogs up the Internet. It's probably on most of the computers. We were going to work on that and start testing the server/proxy thing but the power went off before lunch.

We waited around a little bit to see if the power would come back on. It didn't so we packed up a left. Daddy worked on his presentation for Saturday and I did some government. Then we had lunch. After lunch the power was still out so we did a puzzle. Then daddy worked on his presentation again, and I walked around a took pictures, played games and talked with the kids.

I learned some new games. One, called ampe, was a speed game. You clap twice and then jump twice and on the second jump put a foot out. Whoever puts their foot out first wins. They play it kind of like 4 square. Lining up at one spot and another spot being the "head". I leaned a couple of hand clapping games, like "down by the banks", some singing dance games like "little sally walker".

The kids loved getting their picture taken, they would crowd around to be in the picture and afterwords to see the picture. I spent a long time out there. Eventually I made my way to the guest house where I worked on a puzzle and talked with daddy. We had supper, and then daddy went to his house. I sat out on the pork and did a puzzle. I heard the radio, and it took a while for it so sink in that the radio takes electricity. I look inside and the lights were on. So I gathered up my things and walked over to daddy's house to tell him "the light was on".

We are now at the lab, catching up on things. In a little while we will go to church. Then we'll come back to the lab and try to fix the viruses.
