On day seven we we woke up in the morning, and ate some breakfast. We got dressed feeling a little bit sad because we had to take Emmanuel to the airport and he was going back to Ghana. I helped Emmanuel pack up his things and get ready. We were talking and laughing about his trip to Santa Barbara all the way to the airport. We unloaded his things from the car and walked over to the terminal. They announced that his plane was ready to be boarded over the loud speaker. "Thanks for every thing I had great time!" he said as he went out the door to the plane. "Wait!' I called out to him. I ran up to him and handed him a picture of Emmanuel and I standing in front of the Mission. It was in a little gold frame that had the words Santa Barbara engraved in it, "Thank you" he said. We watched him walk over to the plane and as he was walking up the ladder to the plane he looked over his shoulder at us, turned around and waved, and kept walking. We all waved back. THE END
