Our ambassadors participated in a Durbar in the city of Akwamufie, Ghana.

A Durbar is a ceremonial festival, where a Ghanaian traditional ruler, the King, sits in state, and meets his people.
The current ruler of the Akwama people is Odeneho Kwafo Akoto. He welcomed our FF delegation to the community.

After the Durbar, he met with our ambassadors, and we could take a few pictures with him.

We are nearing the end of our week with our ambassadors from Toronto. We have German food and music (including the chicken dance), milked cows, fed baby pigs and goats, learned about robotic dairies, visited EPIC, the University, the International Crane Foundation, the Baraboo Circus museum and of course a cheese factory among other things. It is always busy and fun. More photos to follow in the coming days.
