Dear travel book.... way to sell it.

"Ghana's beating heart probably won't inspire love letters, but you might just grow to like it. The capital's hot, sticky streets are perfumed with sweat, fumes, and yesterday's cooking oil. Like balloons waiting to be burst, clouds of dirty humidity linger above stalls, selling mangoes, banku, and rice. The city's tendrils reach out towards the beach, the centre and the west, each one a different Ghanian experience"
 
..... Need I say more?
Ps. How do I apply to write these books?
Kudos lonely planet writers ;D You're literary devices are mind-boggling. So good!
 

Hedgehogs

Meet the hedgehog family.....
 
 
 
One year I went with my mom to a Garden centre.... As we were walking, I saw the "original hedgehog", or "Alfred" (blue, top right). I knew immediately that we must have him. I convinced my mom to buy the hedgehog, and we took him home and set him up in the garden.
 
Ever since, it has been our yearly summer tradition to add a new hedgehog to the family :)
The newest addition is the blue guy in the top left, whom is awaiting a name after my trip to Ghana!
That was my mom's one request of "things we must do before I go" ... Get a hedgehog for the garden. So cute!! :)
I'll miss you and the hedgehog family, mom <3
