Home Away From Home

So I've been back in Accra with my brother's family since Thursday night and Im getting ready to go to the airport back to the states in a couple of hours.  SO here are the last few experiences in pictures. Enjoy

Friday morning waiting for the Embassy bus to take my neices and nephew to Lincoln International School.

Saturday was International Day at their school- over 60 countries represented by students that attend there.  After a presentation in the auditorium there was a parade out to the field where tents were set up where you could sample food from all the different countries.  The US Ambassador to Ghana is the guy in with the white hair in the red t-shirt.

School kids attending the festival.

There are several Ghanaian kids that also go to the school and they were represented not only by the food but the music and dance of the culture.

Here we are on the school grounds- very different from what I have been used to in Ghana so far!

Me at a concert my brother took me to of a Ghanaian artist.  I eventually got up and danced- the music was had alot of reggae influence- a party vibe for sure.

Here is the lead singer playing something called a Callabas (?)

Today we celebrated Thanksgiving!!  And now I'm off to get ready to go to the airport
