22 Jul 2017 Sounds of the Alph Horn

Early morning clouds is a spectacular view from the balcony of apartment F8. Layer of clouds can be seen over the towns of the valley, as clouds move propelled by the wind. Today was no exception, as i woke up in the morning to have a look out before breakfast.
After breakfast, we took a walk to a house with an inscription "AKWAABA" - A word meaning "welcome". It is an a twi word, spoken by the Akan tribe of Ghana. Me ma wo akwaaba. I welcome you(singular) or simply Akwaaba: welcome.- at its Entrance.
Afterwards we had a walk along Bisse  vieux. Sounds from alph horns could be heard in the atmosphere from alphists who were rehearsing towards the festival tomorrow God willing.
Later in the evening, there was a parade of culture exhibition where various farmers and participants of the festival presented an act or material in relation to old tradition. Also present were invited guest from other countries.
We had a nice dinner afterwards and played triminos in the evening. A fair game this was.
