Trevor Goodge eat chicken, along with other meats, but the chicken isn't anything like it is in America. "There food is good, but it is spicy," said Teri. The Waltzes also got to travel around Ghana some. They went to the school Micah 6:8 has set up. She said it is a three-room school where they teach math and English. But they also teach the vocations of cooking so people can work as cooks or in catering. The other vocation they teach is sewing. Traveling in Ghana wasn't their favor- ite thing. "The driving was pretty scary. You just had to not watch," said Teri of the driving. They also hiked in a national forest and went to a beach one day. They also went to the compound where they got to visit and play games with children who had been rescued from the fishing crews. "The neatest thing was the kids. I liked the kids and seeing how happy they were even though they didn't have anything," said Shelby. On March 26, nine days after they left the United States, the Waltzes re- turned to Pike County. "We enjoyed it so much. I wanted to get back to my family, but we didn't want to leave. Part of our hearts are there and we want to go back," said Teri.
