This was easily one of the best nights of my life.
In order for you guys to understand the importance of this night, let me throw it back to three months ago... One day in Ghana, Nsawam, a group of Americans were working in the blistering heat trying to get to know this random group of people who they traveled across the world with, so they asked questions. Many questions. The vital question that led to this moment in history was, "What is your favorite Disney movie?" obviously we all agreed it was Tangled. AND WHY?? Because of the LANTERNS! That question created a bond between us that will never be broken. Haha not really, we became close because of many reasons, but I would be lying if I said this was not one of them. Anyway, since that day in the hot sun we dreamed a dream of attending the lights fest as a group.
Three months later that is what exactly we did
I cannot even begin to describe how much I loved this night. I felt complete happiness for the first time in a long time. The night was surrounded by some of my favorite people. Nothing cannot beat that. We scream at the top of our lungs. Dance harder than 99% of the population. And start parties wherever we go. For example, this crazy amazing singer that was performing had no audience, and once my friends and I went over to the stage EVERYONE DID! This might have almost beat the lanterns. This guy was absolutely amazing. He had the coolest performance and if anyone heard my voice the next day you KNOW I had the time of my life. Obviously, because that was the first time I have EVER lost my voice. It was just that good.
After we were almost completely exhausted, the lanterns began. I am not going to lie, we cried. The Ghana gang fulfilled our dream and it was even better than I imagined because Greyson tagged along;) road trips with him are so much better.
I highly recommend going to the lantern festival!
Make sure to bring some tissues... and deodorant if you dance as hard as us jkjk
I am so extremely blessed
I will never forget this night. literally amazing!
until next time... if I ever find a free minute to write again, thanks college
