Workers day
1st of May was Workers Day, which meant we all got the day off work..
There was a parade through Tamale which ended at the Police park where there were some traditional dancing displays and speeches etc. We stayed for the dancing which was excellent. I took a wee video clip on my camera and am going to try and put up on the web so you can see the dancing as it’s amazing.
My life at the moment revolves around trying to find a new place to stay as we’re having lots of problems with the house we’re in just now. Don’t want to go into it all as it’s getting boring. I have looked at loads of houses and rooms but still not found one that is suitable - mainly cos Tamale is so big they are all too far away from the office for us to cycle. So it’s hard to really concentrate on doing anything until I get my housing situation sorted, but everything here takes so long, I’m starting to get pretty frustrated with it all. Anyway..
Here is a photo I managed to take in the central taxi rank with the central mosque behind. You can see some women and children carrying stuff on their heads - mainly fruit/food being sold to passengers.
