We visited the childhood home of Bernard
Woma. These
photos are views from the roof, looking down into the house.
The roof is where the millet is dried and where people gather
to eat.
There are five sections of the house; one for each of the five
wives.
Sisters carrying sisters. It is more difficult than it looks!
The town of Nandom specializes in making badakaris,
a traditional smock worn by men and boys.
The market at Nandom had a sea of flip-flops for sale.
Once again, we bought lots of great fabric.
The troupe we traveled with, Dagara
Bewaa, performing at the Kakube Festival.
Vultures and bats are common sights. The vultures walked
across the tin roofs and freaked us out a bit.
Here's where my fun ended. I came down with
amoebic dysentery and was immobilized by high fever
and illness. I lay in the hot, bare room covered in wet
towels, trying to keep liquids down.
