Mmmm pain au chocolat - the best way to start the day. Its like a croissant - but even more unhealthy!! So far Togo is really cool, it feels like France and Africa have merged to create a french speaking, african looking and french/african tasting country.
Yesterday I spent over an hour trying to find the post office, i think my sense of direction has gotten worse (is that possible) since leaving NZ! I then spent a loooooooooong time at the post office waiting for them to figure out exactly where New Zealand was...
While wandering the markets (resisting making any purchases I might add) I found a hair braiding place. So after sitting for over an hour and hearing - "Soon, soon, just a few more minutes" I had my hair braided in really small rastas as they call them. It took almost 3 hours but is so much easier! The heat, dust and lack of showers actually powerful enough to wet my hair meant that I really have been having a bad hair month!
Ooo, and yesterday I made quite an exiting purchase! To deter my male fans (yes I think you could turn up with hair worse than mine (if possible) and clothes more brown than mine (again if possible) and still be hit on here in Africa) I bought a lovely `gold`wedding ring. As of now, I am married and I have 2 children. What shall I name my lovely offspring? (please no comments from the family, you know what Im talking about!).
