Swimmer / 9.20.08
On Saturday I was invited to Mole (where there is one of the only, if not the only, swimming pool north of Kumasi) on a swimming expedition with the kids from the Damongo orphanage. My job was to make sure the kids, none of whom know how to swim, didn't sink. So I stood in a pool for about 5 hours with at least 2 to 6 kids hanging on me at all times. The kids are all very well behaved and I think we all had a fun time. Here is one of the kids decked out in his swim gear. It seems there weren't quite enough arm-floats to go around - fortunately everyone remained buoyant.
