[QUOTE="hearts and roses, post: 538148, member: 2211"] Well, I received a text from easy child at 4:30 am this morning telling me that she received a call from the embassy in Accra. So I asked how things were this morning. She said the riots had ceased and they drove through town in a taxi and all the buildings were a mess and some burned down and people were cleaning up the streets. There is still tension and I do not think she realizes the seriousness of her being one of two white girls traveling alone in Ghana, without the security of traveling under the umbrella of a group or organization. When I told the embassy deputy that they were traveling on their own, his concern was very obvious. So her next text was to tell me "no more calls to the embassy. If you have questions, call me"....hahahaha, as if she has a freaking clue. I'm so angry with her but I refuse to take her bait. I'm not responding to her until later if at all. Thanks for the thoughts and prayers, please continue as she is not out of danger until she's back on US soil. They don't realize how different things a in other countries. She referred to the local police as soldiers...because they were walking around in flack jackets and Uzis. Hello? That's how the police dress there! Anyway... [/QUOTE]
