I, of course, slept for most part of the journey. And I very much intended to! I brought my pillow and eye-mask to mean business. When I did awake to meet the last 45 minutes of the car ride, I was greeted with the most beautiful scenes to photograph. If I had my way, we would stop at every moment for me to get a photograph of a family, a vendor, a boy gathering wood from the farm, a shepherd and his herd of sheep, sheep without a shepherd, a marketplace, fishermen at sea or just the beautiful natural arrangement of palm and coconut trees that lines the road. But that would have taken all day. So I just settled with getting my photographs from a moving car, which, despite the situation, turned out pretty well. One of the many photographs from a moving car is this photograph of coconut trees which we are using in our postcard series today. The journey, the feelings of serenity, and adventure couldn&#8217;t help but make me want to listen to one of my favorite songs from Daft Punk entitled &#8220;Beyond.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p itemprop=\"headline\"><i><\/i><strong><em><br \/>\n<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/armenyl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/Dreams-in-Ghana-2-by-Armenyl.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-776\" alt=\"Dreams-in-Ghana-by-Armenyl Blessed\" src=\"https:\/\/armenyl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/Dreams-in-Ghana-2-by-Armenyl-1024x682.jpg\" width=\"750\" height=\"499\" srcset=\"https:\/\/armenyl.com\/test\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/Dreams-in-Ghana-2-by-Armenyl-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/armenyl.com\/test\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/Dreams-in-Ghana-2-by-Armenyl-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/armenyl.com\/test\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/Dreams-in-Ghana-2-by-Armenyl-770x513.jpg 770w, https:\/\/armenyl.com\/test\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/Dreams-in-Ghana-2-by-Armenyl-100x66.jpg 100w, https:\/\/armenyl.com\/test\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/Dreams-in-Ghana-2-by-Armenyl-370x247.jpg 370w, https:\/\/armenyl.com\/test\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/Dreams-in-Ghana-2-by-Armenyl-1155x770.jpg 1155w, https:\/\/armenyl.com\/test\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/Dreams-in-Ghana-2-by-Armenyl-293x195.jpg 293w, https:\/\/armenyl.com\/test\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/Dreams-in-Ghana-2-by-Armenyl-1400x933.jpg 1400w, https:\/\/armenyl.com\/test\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/Dreams-in-Ghana-2-by-Armenyl-360x240.jpg 360w, https:\/\/armenyl.com\/test\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/Dreams-in-Ghana-2-by-Armenyl-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/armenyl.com\/test\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/Dreams-in-Ghana-2-by-Armenyl.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p itemprop=\"headline\"><strong><em>Remember love&#8217;s our only mission<\/em><\/strong><br \/>\n<strong><em>This is the journey of the soul<\/em><\/strong><br \/>\n<strong><em>The perfect song is framed with silence<\/em><\/strong><br \/>\n<strong><em>It speaks of places never seen<\/em><\/strong><br \/>\n<strong><em>Your home&#8217;s a promise long forgotten<\/em><\/strong><br \/>\n<strong><em>It is the birthplace of your dreams<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><em>\u2014<\/em>Daft Punk, Beyond<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cape-coast, Ghana 2014 I decided to make a trip to the central region of Ghana last weekend.\u00a0It was a 4 hour drive to Cape-Coast!
