Now that June is almost upon us, the rainy season seems to be kicking into high gear, bringing with it cooler temperatures and more overcast days (in addition to actual rain). Cooler is, of course, a relative term. It still gets up into the low- to mid-80s, and down into the low 70s at night. Perfect weather for obrunis, though it leaves something to be desired for most Ghanaians. I have even seen babies and children bundled in sweatshirts and jackets.
A storm came through first thing Monday morning, and the cloud cover stayed all day. The temperature never got above 28 (82ish) on our Celsius-reading thermometer. Mary, who does our cleaning, was surprised I was still running the ceiling fans in the house that day. Wasn't I chilled, she asked me? I assured her I was not.
Out to eat at one of our favorite restaurants, Abusua ... in the rain. (We're under a tent.)

That's good news that it's cooling down a bit. You got a picture of what I missed getting when we were there, the traffic. It didn't look as crowded as some of the trips in traffic that we took with you, but it does give a little idea of what you and the Ghanaians face every day.
We hope you don't have to use the water tank, but it is good insurance. Hugs for the little puddle jumper. He is so cute.
Love to all of you.
