Big Milly's, Kokrobite, Accra

Reggae night every Saturday by the beach!
The live band and beach crazed crowd gives a different vibe than Accra night outs. Go in flip flops and light clothing and dance away :)

I went last Saturday, the road towards the place is terrible because of the rain, but it was well worth it. (and I was very much glad I wasn't driving!)

White Sands, Gomoa Fetteh, Ghana

White Sands, some years back, was open to all. When I came back in 2007, I found out the owner made it exclusive for members only.  However, guests are allowed to visit with payment of an entrance fee. My friend and I went on a Sunday, we were endorsed by one of our other friends who was a member. It's less than an hour's drive from Accra.

The day was so relaxing and absolutely enjoyable!!!
It is quite pricey, though.

Abandze Beach Resort

For the Easter break, a bunch of friends and myself drove to Abandze, which is like a 2hour-ish drive from Accra.

I did nothing but eat, drink, sleep, get sweet sweet kisses from the sun... :) very relaxing.
"Abandze says RELAX..."

                          

 

 We also walked from Abandze to Fort Amsterdam. There'll be a guy who will give you a short tour and history about the place. 

If you're looking for a mellow weekend away from Accra, this resort is small, quiet and for the 'dolce farniente' do-ers :)

Hillburi, Aburi

I have been there a few times and always had a relaxed day by the pool :) Would definitely recommend it for a day trip. I have never stayed for the weekend, but it's on my to do list. I like the greenery around.

Loved the signs that are by the bar. Funny!!
Here are two that I took pics of:

Thai Island

Got the ambiance. Didn't particularly like the location but once you enter the restaurant, it's cosy and it's got a lovely feel to it. i love the "chandelier" (see below)

The food is real good! :)  a must try!

Monsoon, Accra

I went for sushi tonight with my schatz because she's traveling on Sunday and I won't see her until September!!!!!! *tear, tear* :p

Monsoon is known for good sushi here in Accra. Kudos to Noy, the sushi chef and Alan, the Teppanyaki chef!! Then there's Michael, I think he's from Japan - kudos to him too! The service today was quick and our waiter actually got a tip that he really worked for. :) It's not always that this happens so you can imagine how happy I am feeling.

A must try: MICHEAL'S GIFT

For dessert, try the brownie or a sorbet! :) 

Labone Junction at 6.30pm

So my sister and I were going to get my car tires pumped at Labone Junction today at around 6.30-ish in the evening. It was a bit dark already so my sister, who was driving put on the headlights. We arrive at the place to pump the tires, but we found out the guy had closed for the day. 

AND we also found him half naked in his boxers (the real thin ones that has the cut in the private part area!) taking a bath! He was panicking because my sister hadn't realized she had her lights on him and she was exposing him to EVERYONE (including the main road!). 

His friend, who my sister was initially talking too, was giggling and politely told my sister and I what we were doing. Whooopppps!!!*LOL*
