Disaster

Having successfully launched the operation on Monday and Tuesday last week we woke up on Wednesday full of pride and looking forward to our first day off in a month.

This was the view from our window:

A fire set by the side of our land to keep out snakes burned out of control, leaped up a tree and took out the batiking building, 6 chairs, the high pressure hose for our gas burner, and shorted out power.

Lydia and I stood in awe and watched while the caretaker, feeling pretty guilty at this point, chucked our remaining water supply on the nearby two buildings two ensure they didn't ignite.

Half an hour later:

At least we saved the batik table! And on a more serious note no-one was hurt, and this wasn't the main building, on which we've spent the past month's working.

Needless to say our day of relaxing was short lived. We'll be rebuilding the roof over the coming month or so.

Just another day in Ghana.
