We tried to take wider view pictures to get a flavor of the busyness on the sides of the road. Someday I will get a video of the actual traffic flow. Totally nuts. no rules just everybody moving. Intersecting roads have no rules other than pull right out in front of you and get in your lane. Cars and motorcycles, 2 and three wheeled mini cycletrucks, coming at you in your lane on both sides of you. Crazy!

| 9 passenger van with at least 16 passengers |
 |
| We counted 5 adults in the back seat. Even hanging out the windows! |
 |
| Typical road sides. Vendors everywhere. |
 |
| Even in the streets. walking up and down between lanes selling everything from water to cellular refill cards to meat and dried fish (the whole fish) |
 |
| This a two lane road,,,,, when its not three or four lanes. Changes by the second. |
Good news, our Branch President's wife was baptized Sunday in the Asamang Branch font. Our's had a hole in it. Where's the duct tape when you need it! Seriously, no duct tape. The fonts are 5'x7'. Think of an above ground vinyl pool. Had to drive down the road a way to the Asamang branch and use theirs.

ReplyDeleteThose ties are custom woven. The fabric is called kente cloth. After its woven, a seamstress sews the tie together. Some elders have their names woven in or the zone they serve in. They're pretty fun!
