What is Accra Pictures by Day and Night?

Accra is the capital of the small, West African country of Ghana, which achieved its independence in 1957 from its colonial master, the United Kingdom. It celebrated 50 years in 2007, and is projecting itself fast and furiously as "gateway to West Africa".

It's an exciting city, with its unique problems, but with it close to the Atlantic ocean, and many beaches, who can resist coming here?

Ghanaian Pedestrians: Red, Stop,...Go!


I had to go to work a little later than usual yesterday as I had duties to the nation to fulfil. The magnitude of the work at hand did not prevent me from taking the time to catch a photo of this pedestrian "meter", located at the Tetteh-Quarshie Interchange.

Before you ask, it does work;-) I do need an answer, though--what do you call what I called the pedestrian "meter"?

I don't know what you call the meter. My question is, does anyone pay any attention to it? Are there police directing traffic at that intersection?

Thank you so much for visitng Tampa Florida Photo (and I hope Tampa Daily Photo.) I hope you will become a Follower of my blogs. The cemetery at Normandy is an amazing place to visit.
