Today was the first full day. It was hot and humid at first, but cooled a bit after a heavy rain fall. We had our first formal classes at the University of Ghana and later took a tour of Accra. This picture is taken at the Independence Arch of Ghana, the location where the March independence is celebrated annually and all new Presidents are sworn in. Pictured is the Statue of the Unknown Soldier. In Ghana's fight for independence, there were many known soldiers that sacrificed their lives. For those otherwise unknown, the Statue of the Unknown Soldier honors them.
