So, I made it through school today and decided to post some more pictures from the weekend! Here is another amazing picture of the beach!
Here is the place right next to the castle where we ate lunch. I was disappointed because I asked for ketchup like ten times, and they never brought it to me. But the kids on the beach put on a great show for us to watch the whole time!
Here are some more culture pictures. It was so interesting driving up and down the beach. Each small community was so different from the next, based on what resources were available right there. These are the first straw huts I have seen. Most of the walls looked like they were simply made with mud. Even though Accra is on the coast, because the water is polluted and no really uses the beaches, there is very little of the "tropical" feel that was in Cape Coast.
I can't believe that I didn't put this one in last night! This was our "bushman" guide through the Rain Forrest in Kakum. His name was "Still Alive" - ha.
And here is a cool picture of the trail leading up to the canopy walk. The trees are so different and interesting.
The week here is off to a good start. Tomorrow I am headed to the orphanage to do an art project. Please pray for my time with the orphans, that they will see Christ's love for them. Then, the teachers are starting a Bible study on Acts. So, busy day ahead!
Love the pics of the beach-- spectacular little lens into your "neck of the woods"
