Since I had such a wonderful time on my safari, I have decided to stay in Ghana for one more day and see how the life style is, also TTI has assigned me to ask people if they like their country, and what they don't like. Just those types of questions will help me figure out more about Ghana. So lets start our adventure to the cities of Ghana!
When I finally found a city to explore in, I wondered what city it was. I needed to find someone to ask. So now I have another mission: to find someone to talk to about what city it was. I went walking down all the streets looking for at least someone. It was pretty weird. I couldn't find anyone. Where could they be? There were certainly no cars that were zooming along. I walked even more to the heart of the city to hear a loud booming sound. It really scared me getting closer and closer to it. It was loud and obnoxious. I turned the corner, and looked up amazed..
It was a soccer stadium! Soccer is really big in Ghana so I guess about everyone goes to their games. I wandered in, there were a few loose people looking for waters and food. I walked up to the lady that was nearest to me and said, "Hi, um can you tell me what city this is?"
"Yes dear, this is the wonderful capitol city named Accra."
"Ohhh! Thanks so much! I am a new-" BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! Both me and the woman looked where the sound was coming from. "Man,they must be dominating the game! But anyways, what I was saying was I am a newcomer, and I don't really know anything about Ghana."
"Oh, I see." The woman said.
"Do you mind if I can ask you some important questions?" I said taking her to a private quiet place (the bathroom. Ew (pretty stinky)).
"What do you want to ask me?" The woman said nervously acting like I'm taking her hostage.
"Just a couple of questions, it's nothing serious. It is for work I do." I said calmly.
"Um, okay..."
"Okay, first question.What do you like about your country?" I said.
She took a couple of seconds to think then blurted out, "Well, I LOVE the soccer, everyone in Ghana has at least been to one game. We are all supporters of our sports. But I also love all the nature, we have fantastic animals that are just so amazing."
"Yes I know, I went on a safari yesterday."
"Oh awesome, you probably learned about a lot of awesome stuff."
"Yes. Second question. What makes Ghana a good place to live?"
"Well all the peacefulness is great."
"What do you mean by that?" I questioned.
"Well there isn't a lot of you know like human trafficking and a bunch of honking cars."
"Oh cool. Last question. What don't you like about Ghana?"
"I don't like how we don't have a lot of supplies for children."
Oh, that's sad." I said thinking that I should make a difference.
Awesome. I got all the information I needed and now I just need to thank the lady. "Thanks again for answering all my questions, you were a great help in my work and just learning about Ghana."
"Oh your very welcome!" She said with a smile.We walked out together from the bathroom and walked into the stadium to watch the rest of the soccer match. You could just see the team had to much potential. It was really fun to watch. Again, what a great way to end my last day in Ghana. Man, Ghana is freaking awesome!
I love how the3 soccer game interrupted when you and the lady were talking about Ghana. I also love how both you and the lady have some things in common... (Soccer) Great post, with excellent vocabulary words.
