Halloween - It is a big deal here!


I remember from when I lived in Maryland that Halloween is a big event here. Everyone made a big effort in decorating their houses and gardens. The streets of Lakewood filled with children and parents wearing wonderful costumes. David, Zac's dad, wore a scary mask and frightened some of the younger children as he gave out sweets and chocolates. I made a Gambian Jack O'Lantern complete with Fula scarring on the cheeks, a common feature of the women of the Fula tribe.
