Another day, another beach...
To get away from the heat of Accra, we decide to go back to Kokrobite, and after a bit of roaming we find a magnificent beach just 5km further away, at Bordianor. The Bojo resort own some huts on the beach and serve cold drinks, but that does not prevent local fishermen from doing their job in the same spot. Amongst them are a group of small hands who only stop playing and bouncing on the sand when they are called upon to help pull the fishing net out of the sea. This gives them plenty of time to first giggle and play around us, and try to find out more about the ‘obrunis’(*) on the beach today. Their english is very approximate and we wonder why they are not at school, still we spend a great couple of hours together exchanging tricks - although for agility we are no competition.
(*) This is how all white people are called here.
