When Darkness Falls during the Accra day, it's Usually Rain!

This Monday morning brought to an abrupt end a long holiday that started on Ghana's independence day of 6 March, which fell on a Friday. Ghana celebrated its 52nd anniversary and, as such, it was a relaxing holiday that was replete with the usual politics that is so quintessentially Ghanaian.

None of us could have expected that rain would fall so heavily Sunday night. I rushed for a walk with my pet dog, and decided to catch this picture. The contrast of the darkened sky against the road and trees was too inimitable to miss capturing for posterity.

And so it is here!
