As we prepared to leave this small rural village, the children seemed to come from everywhere to bid farewell. Our host told us that they would probably be talking about our visit and the fact that we took their photographs for years to come.
We took a small break and flew to Accra on the weekend that followed mostly for work-related reasons, namely, Temple University-related teleconferences requiring reliable Internet service. While in Accra, we took a 4 hour drive to give us the opportunity to visit some of the most haunting places we have ever been: the slave castles. We were told that President Obama visited the castles a few weeks earlier during his visit to Ghana. Perhaps you saw this covered on CNN.
