There wasn't a lot that happened this week. It was pretty average when it comes to contacting and teaching. We did have the chance to do another service project, but we had to reschedule it because we didn't have all the tools we needed.
Now to the good stuff. KON KON WONDERLAND. Now it's a little hard to explain what this place actually is. They call themselves "Ghana's first farm resort and ecological park". Now I don't really know what that means but the poster had a turtle on it so we decided to go. In order to get there, you need to walk about a mile and a half up a dirt road. You pretty much keep walking until you are in the middle of nowhere.
When we first got to Kon Kon, we were a little confused because it was completely empty. The place was pretty nice and it was well kept in most of the areas, but there was nobody there. We walked around for about 10 minutes until we found a woman who said she worked there. There were two workers total and she was one of them. She gave us a tour around and it was very interesting. You can't really call it a zoo but they had animals. They have a snake, and a donkey, and a horse, and turtles, and chickens, and pigs, and that's it. I'm honestly just happy they had the turtle that was on the poster. I even got to hold the turtle and it was super heavy. The chickens and pigs were part of the farm and they were all sorted by color. I took pictures of the chickens, but I'll spare you from the horrors I saw in the pig pens. At the end of the day it ended up being 10 Cedis, ($2 USD) and I can safely say it is the best zoo... in all of Bawjiase.
And that was my week. Good luck to all of the missionaries reading this, keep on grinding.
See you all next week!
