Amsterdam Airport

Egg McMuffin, the universal breakfast food of travelers, fast food junkies, and those nursing a hangover, available worldwide "thanks" to the globalization of Western corporations, including but limited to McCrapFood - check. Shower - check. Book - check. Bench in a reasonably quiet lounge area to facilitate napping - check. Complete exhaustion and lack of focus on what I'm writing right now - double check. Now, to figure out a way to strap myself into my backpack so that it can't get stolen while sleeping...

Will write again in Accra.

  4. Pat & I received an email from Mr. Asomaning her host family father tonight. Evidently Emily is spending the weekend with her NGO organization, AFS, for orientation. He is to pick her up Monday morning. He will let us know by email when she arrives at her new home in Accra.

  5. That must relieve some worry! Me Asomaning is clearly a parent himself and knew we were all wondering why we hadn't heard from our wandering girl. Whew!
