King's 10 Year Anniversary

The Asantehene celebrated his ten year anniversary this Sunday. Andrew and I went over to the stadium after morning church to get a few pictures. Here are a few for you to see. We were not able to get close to the king and had to settle for pictures of lesser chiefs.













This is the best picture that we could get of the Asantehene. Andrew used his movie camera and took this picture from quite a distance, but I think that it is a good picture, in spite of the circumstances.


Each large umbrella that you see represents a different chief that attended to pay his respects to the Asantehene. The smaller umbrellas are lesser chiefs and family members, and all the people in white are servants or members of courts.
