SNAKE!

ghanaians don't like snakes. this is understandable, since most of the snakes found in ghana are the bad, poisonous ones. so anytime anyone sees a snake, they do whatever they can to kill it.
so today there was a snake near the classrooms. i was upstairs, so i got to watch from the balcony. down below, suddenly, a bunch of men started chasing after something in the bush. they formed a circle and were throwing big rocks. more and more people gathered, until suddenly, YEAH! and i could then see the white underside of the now dead snake.
it probably became someone's lunch.

  1. uck. ugh. ick. i don't like snakes either. there is something about the phrase "white underside of the now dead snake" that totally grosses me out.
