But you're gonna have to hold on

This week has been really hard on the ship. There are a lot of sick people, including my beloved bunkie. I felt sick too, but for different reasons. One of our security guards was hit by a motorbike while running in the morning so he is in the hospital. A large group of people left on Friday night and had to come back because their flight was canceled, thus leaving our overworked hospitality staff with the quandry of where to put them. Overall, people seem really discouraged.

Please pray for healing for all the sick and hurt people and a restoration of morale!

On a lighter note, I'm going to Ghana the last weekend of October. I'm very excited to see the country whose citizens call "the promised land." It should be lovely.

I don't have much to say besides all that, so I thought I would post some pictures.




The beach at Ouidah

The Point of No Return for slaves leaving Africa

Something that the Cotonou port should probably remove. Also the future "Grey Mercy" which you can ask me about if you really want to know.

Guess what most people here drive. Come on! Just guess!

Down the dock.

Hole in the wall. If someone could just photoshop my finger out of there, it would be a pretty cool picture. (Hint hint)
