Ghana Christmas

Merry Christmas, Ghana style
The country is incredibly colorful.
Everyone is friendly.

Boys will be boys.
We drove thousands of miles
We saw hundreds of villages
Weaving Kente cloth
Baby bat snacks

Look what we stumbled across!
Green monkeys, too!

Naughy, naughty!

The slave forts were haunting.
Pretty outside. Pretty depressing inside.
 
Now that was a walk on the wild side!
