a ghanaian soccer game

In honor of Ghana's win against US today, a favorite photo from when I visited Ghana's Ada Foah region. We had just arrived by boat to a secluded strip of land. To the left was the river and to the right, the ocean. We were treated to this pick up game and some fufu. 



By nightfall, we stayed in the huts, under a mosquito net, but I remember it was so hot inside that we finally fell asleep on the beach under the stars.

  2. thanks! I totally miss it. it's weird thinking that even though I'm back in the states, it should still be just as beautiful and picturesque there with probably a game just like this one going on and sea turtles crawling around. so 1. that makes me sad and 2. people should totally vacation on the beaches of Ghana more--the Caribbean is overrated.
