Like the popular saying, all work and no play makes Fi a dull boy. After the long travels by road and the successful event at Sunyani, the crew headed back to Accra in hopes of catching a little vacation time before the return to our base in Nigeria. We had it all mapped out, or so we thought, until we arrived Accra late in the night and started on the quest to locate somewhere perfect for us. It wasn't one of the fun moments lol. We wanted adventure and I guess we found her, even though she wasn't dressed the way we expected.
After receiving the reality check that Accra is a more expensive place to stay compared from where we were coming from in Sunyani, we decided to embark on another long trip, this time to somewhere I've always wanted to go; a beach resort! We arrived at our destination late in the night, very tired and very hungry. The rooms were taken care of and some of us went out to get food. Like it has been well documented, our taste buds and the food here aren't best of friends. We couldn't see the beach that night but I silently prayed it would be worth it when we eventually do see it.
By morning, I was almost late for breakfast and as usual the meal only looked so good in pictures. In no time, I was done and was so eager to get down to the beach. Did I mention it was going to be my first time ever? So many firsts have happened these few days! Amazing yeah?
At first, the outlook of the beach was going to leave me disappointed but another plate of pretty but not really good tasting food soon transferred my disappointment away from the beach's outlook. After the meal, we took another walk down to the beach. Mind you, I was also going to swim for technically my first time but I guess I couldn't muster enough craziness to try it out. So to the beach we went and I didn't want to leave.
It later turned out to be something I liked and enjoyed. Looking at the ocean made me reconsider my earlier decision to drop nautical science. You know it’s a beautiful sight but permit since it’s my first time. I didn’t get close to the waters.
I love taking nature pictures over human pictures and I’m happy I was able to take some for the memories. It has been an amazing experience in Ghana, one that I know will continue to remain with me for the forseable future. I wish I could take part of the electricity along with me to Nigeria but we’ll be fine lol.
