23rd Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Travel
Saturday, the Big Day for Funerals Along the Kumasi Road to Cape Coast, Ghana
Funerals in Ghana, grand affairs with processions, festive events, singing, and some sadness are usually done on Saturday so working folks can attend. We stopped at this event. They invited us in. There is a photo of the deceased surrounded by flowers. The casket signifies who they were in life.
