Floating through Accra



Vivian just helped me out with this, so now I'm a blogger. Jesus, that's like showing somebody how to open the driver's door and then handing out a license. Well now this thing is up and so I better post some pictures. Better than boring you with endless stories. The zebra crossing above is in Accra, Ghana. The pictures on display ar for sale. Next to Bill is J.J.Rawling the former dictator who turned into a democrattically elected president and then, rather uncommon in Westafrica, stepped back once his two periods in office were over.
The guy on the right was one of the members of the elctoral commission. I went out with them on a float in Accra. We were all standing on a truck handing out leaflets about the upcoming local elections while a band was playing some kind of Salsa or whatever. I got pretty sun burned, but it was great fun.
