The view from the passenger seat. Clockwise from top left: a tro tro driving next to us, the road to Nungua, Independence Square, by the sea. |
Today we went on a road trip!
Ok so it wasn't really a road trip. We were only in the car (with my favourite taxi driver friend, Appiah) for about an hour, but it was a great route with lots to see.
I always forget that Accra is on the coast (for some reason I find it weird that a capital city lies on the coast...) so it's always a pleasant surprise after driving for about 7 mins to find that we're right by the sea (specifically, the Gulf of Guinea). As usual, there was quite a bit of traffic and where there's traffic, hawkers will surely follow.
Down by the sea... |
The area we visited is called Nungua (pronounced noon-gwah), and it was complete chaos! People everywhere darting between traffic, shouting and yelling, dancing in the streets. No lie.
We went to see some family friends and their gorgeous children. I mean, looook... >>

And then we were off again, speeding down the motorway, snap snap snapping away...
