It's hard to believe, but our first 60 days is almost up for us here in Ghana. When we arrived in the country on July 6, we were given the customary 60 day stamp. To stay longer, we must go to the immigration office and fill out some papers (and pay some more money). It shouldn't be a problem. We will take with us a letter from the administrator of the hospital here. We hope that they will consider our departure date and just grant us an full extension to that date so we won't have to go back in another 60 days.
We are going to the immigration office in Tamale which is a little over 2 hours drive from here. We are also using this trip as a supply run. We haven't made the trek since we went to retrieve Cindy's ATM card on July 11. (if you haven't read about that, go back in the archives) Try going over 6 weeks without going to Walmart!! The kids are working ahead in their school lessons so they can miss school tomorrow and get out of the village, too. We have been trying to arrange a day out of town for several weeks but transportation has been an issue. Thankfully the hospital van is back in commission so we have arranged for a driver to take us.
