Cape Coast – playing tourist with our friends and co-workers July 28, 29 and 30
THE BEACH
Cape Coast castle and fishermen hauling in a net full of fish.
THE MIGHTY VICTORY
Our home for two nights was a small hotel on a hill.
CAST AND CREW
The whole gang – all of us involved in some way with the fecal sludge to biodiesel project. Jeremy, Camille, Bob, Laura, Lauren, Louis and Justin.
A CATHOLIC CHURCH AND A FALLEN LION
We climbed the hill to beautiful Saint Francis de Sales Catholic church. And walked up the street past the fallen statue of a lion towards the Goil station. Goil stands for Ghana Oil.
BRIGHT BUILDINGS
We liked the pied crow on the side of this pink and yellow building and were impressed by the bright red color of this building.
BATIKING CLASS
Lauren signed us up for a batiking class so we all made ourselves a piece of cloth and learned about the process. It was a great experience and we brought our fabric home to use as window covering. More photos of the batiking class here: Batiking Class
LAST DAY
The sun rose like a red ball the morning of our return to Kumasi. We walked down to the Baobab House for a delicious breakfast.
MORINGA THE MIRACLE PLANT
Come to find out we have moringa growing in our neighborhood!
HEADING HOME WITH ERIC
Potty stop and plantain stop. Bob shot a photo of Eric buying baked plantain from a roadside vendor on the way home.
PSALM PEOPLE AND PALM PEOPLE
It is common to see buildings with religious messages on them like this shop with the words The Lord is My Shepherd. On the way home, we passed a miles of homes and shops made of palm fronds.
