Halloween in Africa!

Last Friday was Halloween and Emily and I were invited to attend a dress up Halloween Party at the US Embassy hosted by the US UN. We have made friends with a few of the American UN soldiers and they were our tickets into the events for the evening. We both dressed up as pirates, we figured it was appropriate considering were we are currently living.

It was great fun hanging around fellow Americans. There was a time when I stopped and thought how crazy is this... we are at a Halloween Party with a bunch of American in Liberia, West Africa. HAHA

Last Saturday and Sunday Hanna, Karen, Jane, Nina, and I decided to get off the ship for a few days. It does a body good. We head by taxi to Thinkers Village about 45 minutes away from the ship. There we beached it and relaxed all day Saturday and all day Sunday. We stayed the night in a guest house that had a BATH TUB....which we were unable to use because the water pressure was so weak...but we were excited none the less to see a bath tub. :)

Below are pictures of the weekend....at the request of Alaina :)-love you friend!
