Had a rather uneventful plane ride...Nick loved it and Isabelle did not sleep a wink! I lucked out as she would only have Patrick hold her! She has been like that the whole trip...everyone is laughing about her "DADDY, DADDY, DADDY!". As soon as we stepped off the plane I was bowled over by the heat!!! It is incredibly hot and it does not help that the power goes off all of time.
We spent 3 days in Accra with Patrick's brother Philip, his wife Becky and two children. It was lots of fun and they all spoke English...which was a bonus!!! We hired a car to drive us up to Kumasi on Monday and it was 4 REALLY BUMPY Hours! I will never complain about our potholes again....We arrived in Kumasi and we were formally introduced to his Parents. They have a Beautiful home and everything is going well. I am even getting kind of used to everyone staring at us and sayign "Obruni, Obruni!" (White Person!) Everything is very loud here and it seems like everyone is selling something from thier tiny little shops that are really huts.
Well, I only have a few more minutes and I want to upload some pictures. I will try to be more descriptive next time.

Dani! So glad you arrived safely! Your mom's been keeping us up to date ... She too mentioned Isy's "Daddy Daddy Daddy!" thing ... She also wrote that Nicky said he had the best two days of his life in Accra!
You wrote that your family was "formally introduced" to Patrick's parents ... What was that like?
Looking forward to seeing photos ... All our love to you all xoxo
P.S. Everything's fine at the house!
