Autumn in Tamale

With the close of 2017 approaching, our interesting life in Tamale is portrayed in part with the photos below. The special highlight of this particular autumn stay was a week-long visit by our daughter, Beth. Equipped with her new camera and her winning persona, she tried to capture our daily activities with spontaneous interviews, candid observations and the documentation of her dad's important work at the hospital. Her photography is a lot better than mine, but for now here are my amateur pics:
