Our day was filled with lectures, walks and crazy Ghanaian soccer (football) games. Tipped off by some locals yesterday, we heard about the “Monday Night Stars” football game that would be played by some of the members of the national Black Stars team at a local school yard. When we arrived today, we realized just how popular this sport is as there were roughly 8,000 people in attendance. However, even though we were late, a friend we had met the day before insisted on pushing us through the crowd until we had front row seats. Here are some images from our day and of the game:

Great action shots from the soccer game! My favorite photo is the one of the fans on the piece of heavy equipment, or maybe the sunset photo, that one is great, too!
Peace, Love & Joy,
