Streets of Accra

I'm in Ghana for a couple of weeks helping to start up a new project. It's my first visit to West Africa, so I'm looking forward to adding to my collection of intestinal microbes.


Street scene downtown.



Some of the local architecture. The African Cup of Nations soccer tournament is taking place here, and Ghana are one of the favorites to win, so flags are everywhere and football fever is running high.



The Makola market downtown.



Another shot of Makola market.



Hilariously good, or hilariously bad? Note the cutout of a sumo wrestler in the left of the photo, which is amusing, but not hilarious.



This-is-not-a-bathroom signs of Ghana, part 1: in an underground parking garage.
