I am a Nigerian who moved to the USA as a teen to go to school and I am also a Muslim. I sometimes find it hard to find places to express both aspects of myself (Nigerian and Muslim) here in Dallas, TX and quite missed the jubilation and fun that follows the end of Ramadan like at home in Lagos. Seeing your post on Eid in Accra gave me a small jolt of happiness. Thank you for that and have great weekend.Bukolahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06478937899388724572noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8851511451028936152.post-45075667322149491322009-09-23T22:20:16.908+00:002009-09-23T22:20:16.908+00:00Yes, people really know how to dress for the occas...Yes, people really know how to dress for the occasion here!!!

...Thanks Swan for visiting and your lovely comment!<br /><br />Gutsy Writer - I will try to keep clicking!<br /><br />Miss Footloose - after 13 years I am only starting to do this!<br /><br />Sassy - this is the MOST common if not only method of carrying babies around in Ghana and in fact when my baby was little, this is how myself and his aunties carried him. They are remarkably comfy, despite our western eye that convinces us they can't be!!! This was the only way to calm my little guy when he got all upset as an infant. Akin to the putting them in the baby seat in the car and driving round and round the block! :)<br /><br />Hi Reema - thanks for visiting. Will definitely visit your site as well. With regard to the Muslim women in Ghana - I understand your concern but I honestly feel culturally it is different here.<br />I will of course be as sensitive as possible though and definitely take your point into consideration!

Just a little suggestion though, I think it is wiser to first ask the veiled Muslim women permission before picturing them. <br /><br />I am Muslim and come from a Muslim country and many veiled women are very sensitive to this (in fact, I heard that in certain cases, they may sue a photographer! I dunno if that is universally true though)<br /><br />--------------------<br />You are more than welcome to come visit the Tea House at http://teatimereflections.blogspot.comReema B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/12015852046857277742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8851511451028936152.post-36192614211577136112009-09-22T03:39:14.822+00:002009-09-22T03:39:14.822+00:00nice photos!
