Sal in Ghana - the movie!!

I don't know whether anyone reads this but anyway! -

I am currently comitting to photo albums the 230 carefully selected photos from Ghana and putting them into two albumo, complete with little name captions (hours spent printing and cutting and arranging and re-arranging).


So, photos dealt with I have quite happily spent the last three days on my laptop fiddling around with windows movie maker. On returning to England I had 108 little films of the children. From waving to singing to dancing to pure mayhem! I selected the best ones, the best bits from the best ones, and a collection of favourite photos many not used for Facebook or in my photo albums...


The result: a 9mins 52secs film dedicated to my children I met during my six months in Ghana! I am a little sad that I didn't include travelling pictures too, but I guessed that asking you nice people to sit through 9 odd mins was probably enough!
So, here it is!

I know the quality is a bit rubbish...

I must say I am very proud of little movie. It is cute in every way imaginable and at the end there is even a little song for you - so stick with it!

Sal xxx P.S. The forth song is called "Igwe" and is a popular song by a Nigerian group called "Midnight Crew". The children danced to the song and I have tried to put the right bits of dance to the song, as well as clips from other dances and the song "I'm singing one".

  1. You've really got a wonderful story captured here. I'm going back to Ghana next year (54 years away) to where I grew up, Accra. I'll bookmark your blog and have a good read - find out what's happened since I've been away!
