This picture is a view of what you can directly see in the back of our hostel. In case you aren't aware of what the Ghanaian flag looks like/means, I will give you a brief tutorial. The flag is horizontally striped: The red on top commemorates those who had died for or in working towards independence. Gold in the middle referring to the fact that Ghana was originally known as the Gold Coast due to their ample supply of gold. Green on the bottom representing the beautiful color of their landscape. This is perfectly demonstrated by this picture. There is also a black star in the middle referring to the Black Star Line which brought black people from all over the black Diaspora back to Africa. This star is EVERYWHERE (even their football team is named the Black Stars).

This is a picture of the Night Market taken from our balcony. The Night Market is where you can get homemade food, drinks, random supplies and other goods. Each little shop is owned by a family for the most part and you can eat right there and talk with them, which is fun.
