Easter

Since arriving in Ghana people have been saying that mangoes will soon be back in the market. Well in the last few days they have finally arrived. There are tables of them in neat stacks waiting to be sold.

I'm not really aware what special events appen over Easter. The gift shops wheel out the cellophane wrapped gift baskets they didn't sell at Christmas or on Valentine's Day. A couple of people have talked about trips up various hills and mountains which seems fitting. At some point I will get around to climbing the one that looms over Koforidua.

I shall probably be spending Easter in the north. But this is dependent on all kinds of uncontrollable factors so we will see what actually happens. Next week is a VSO meeting in Accra, so it is unlikely I will write much more before the end of the month.

Happy Easter.
