Paul - the winner in action |
Today's highlight was a visit to the cultural centre in Kumasi, essentially an area full of artisans selling their wares. We were lucky to come on the day Ghana was picking it's representative for pan African competition to be held in March, in Tanzania, celebrating local traditions in wood carving - "wood is good". The regional finalists were given 3-4 hours to produce something that represented their culture and to show off their skills. We were welcomed in like celebrities, the craftsmen talked about their work and we even got involved in presenting the prizes.

Kumasi was also the chance to stock up on some provisions before we bush camp for the next few days. The market stalls are plentiful and have a large range of fruit and veg, we did however avoid the roasted bat
