Cape Coast University

Sometimes we get real lucky and get to have a little taste of the University experience in Ghana. Karson has a couple mission companions that go to Cape Coast University and were able to find us each a place to stay with a member for two nights. I love travelling, but it is even better when you are able to meet the people and gain new friendships.

I stayed with Patience and Barbara and then there roommate who is not a member. They are the nicest and I am so grateful for their hospitality. They were all willing to do whatever they could to make my stay as comfortable as possible. 

My roommates! 

On Sunday we were able to go to church. I love going to church here in Ghana, especially when it is in English. Because of the closeness of the University there are lots of young single adults in the ward. I always love the closeness of members outside of Utah. Honestly, just by being Mormon it is like you have a built in group of friends where ever you go. I think I will need to move out of Utah for a while.
Us at the beach.
Sunday evening we then got to have dinner on the beach. Boy do I love the beach. Utah definitely needs to figure out how to get us a nice ocean beach. But I guess that would only work if all of California and Nevada fell into the ocean. Only a couple of us ended up playing in the water and we ended up getting their right when it started getting dark.  The current seemed to be a lot stronger at Cape Coast then it had been at Green Turtle, I am not sure if it is always like that or just because it was getting dark. I don’t really know a whole lot about the water cycle at on the coast.
After the beach. 
Cape Coast was so much. I hope that we can maybe find some time to go and visit our new friends again. Or maybe they could even come and visit us!
Sometimes not everyone looks, o well.
