One last purchase in Ghana

There are only a handful of cruise ships that come into Takoradi each year, but the merchants try to make it very easy for us to buy their crafts. They set up their little market within 40 yards of the ship.  So, on the last day in Ghana Sandy gave me instructions to go buy some "beads"-- and off she went on an excursion to a local village.  So, to this little market I went and while I may not have gotten the best deal I certainly got several strings of beads at a price much lower than what the guy first wanted.
