Image 1 – the first image is a picture of chicken and kelewele (fried plantain). this is a staple Ghanaian snack. I had it at the night market behind my school.

Image 2 – the second image was of me going to labadi beach. i went with some friends from school. i had a good time at the beach but it was more busy than i expected it to be. we were able to get a table and eat food an play uno, relax, and have a good time. i most likely wont go back there again with the expectation of relaxing but more so having fun with friends.
