Carving Watermelons?

So there aren't any pumpkins in Ghana, but they have plenty of watermelons! So here's a taste of some fun we had this weekend...

This is Shari and I attempting to draw a Ghanaian symbol on our watermelon. Shari did an awesome job!

Here I am carving! Watermelons are actually really good to carve because you can see the red inside against the green outside. So pretty!

Finished product! The symbol means "except God" meaning that nothing is possible without God. You can find this symbol everywhere. On fabric, on tro-tros, painted on signs, on clothing...

If you saw the Amazing Race episodes in Ghana you might recognize the symbol from the GIANT word search!
