Day 8-by Lydia

This morning was yet another early one; worship was now due to go ahead at 8am so everyone rushed to get ready. Our breakfast was impressively early at 6.30am-something of a shock in comparison to breakfast in the UK! Polly was feeling pretty unwell so she and Ellen remained in camp whilst the rest of us walked down the hill to the Roman Catholic Church. This is the biggest building in Dwabor and easily fitted our team along with the Catholic members of the High School. Michael, the Deputy Head, spoke the majority in Fanti and there was a lot of preaching and praying. Unfortunately, for my accident prone self, we had been in worship only 20 mins or so before I nearly fainted quite unexpectedly. I went back to bed and am now in Elmina writing this blog after stopping at another being-built playground to look at the design with Alex the Bamboo man  The remaining team are clearing room for the Playground (boys using machetes) and removing the bark from the 2000 logs that were delivered yesterday. This is probably our first full day of project work so we look forward to watching everything develop.
