On the loose

After a healthy breakfast today,


we got into a cab to go on a trip. 


Bookstore at Labadi Beach please. 


6 Cedis


We drove through the hood


Until,`Please I need to pump air in the tire´


Sorry, what?


Ok no prob!


A short pit stop


And back on the road!


A couple minutes and almost no traffic later


we got out of the cab.


Bookstore?


Heading up to the street


Spotted!


Success!


Then we went back towards the beach to the trade fair grounds. Yes, there´s a show, please enter


Look, that must be it!


Look that´s it!


Uhh...


Not it.


But right next to this pretty fountain!


Then we turned onto La Road


I got a LaCasera 


A horse?


Is that the actual trade fair?


Yes. 


Cupcake?


Cupcake.


But no Peace Treat


Those are chandeliers hanging from the ceiling


Fashion and Jewelry fair


<3


We got hungry and headed back toward the road


Bon Appetit

Painting

We got to Ho in the early afternoon and Victoria took us to buy paint.


Early next morning, we headed to the school, where this awaited us:



Kwesi helped us mix the paint


And fashioned us some extension rods for the paint rollers


And we were ready to go!


First the primer


From the side


From the back


And inside the classroom too


We had a small audience





Coat 1


Then my favourite colour


And some minor Canada Day celebrations


They sang for us


Then back to work


The inside 


And then the terracotta for the bottom



Victoria helped too :)


Some final touch-ups




Done!
