To see this stunning Graceful Chameleon (Chamaeleo gracilis) up close, with all its peculiarities, was indescribable. Time and time again I'm reminded of how fortunate I am to be here in Ghana. Each day bringing me something new to wonder at. (at Talensi-Nabdam District)

Ghanaian graffiti. The children here don't have paper to draw on, so they write on the walls, drawing pictures and practicing their letters and numbers. #ghana #peacecorpsghana #art #artislife #childrenarethefuture #graffiti (at Dallung, Northern, Ghana)

Found what I can only assume to be a type of Aegagropila linnaei, also known as a Marimo ball at the beach today! It was about 1.5in in diameter and had tiny little crabs crawling on it! #pnw #westcoastbestcoast #marimo #aegagropilalinnaei #algae #oceanlife #adventure #beachlife #goingforawalk #crustacean #longbeachwa (at Long Beach/ Ocean City WA)
