Living in Dodi

Five of the people in this picture are members of the family where I stayed the week that I was in Dodi. The mama is the lady in the center. The lady on the right is preparing dinner on a charcoal stove that you must fan for about 10 minutes to get the coals to a good state for cooking. The experience of seeing how they prepare food made me learn how anal we are about how clean the area is where we prepare our food (and this is coming from someone who is already not so anal about it). Apparently Paul and I kicked the kids out of their room and they slept out on this porch while we were there. The kindness of Ghanaians is amazing!
