Leaving for Akosombo

Lauren and I are on the bus and ready for our next adventure--we went to Akosombo for the weekend and it was soooo beautiful. It did justice in showing off God's beautiful creation The scenery was stunning and we all had a very good weekend.

Our hotel was awesome! They had monkeys just chillin there! When we were looking around we saw a guy feeding juice to the baboon.

A few friends and I decided to walk around a bit and explore the town. We went to the market and ended up talking to some people. We talked to a lovely young lady who was selling things (she is the one with the box on her head) and her mother showed us how she wrapped her baby around her. It was really neat, but I don't think I would trust a piece of cloth tied around me to hold my baby...I would be far too nervous.


We also went and saw the dam. It creates a ton of power for Ghana using the Volta River. It was pretty cool, but I was more impressed by the view on top of it! Here is a  picture of the whole crew with our tour guide :)




The night ended with Lauren breaking her door knob off! We had to get the manager to break into her room by climbing through the window.
