Weekend 1: Kokrobite
My first weekend here, I took a trip to Kokrobite (cocro-bee-tee). I traveled with my friends Anouska (England) and Edwin (Ghana). Before embarking on our hour-long journey (the closest place I've traveled since coming to Accra!), we stopped in Circle, a busy section of the city. We went to visit one of Edwin's friends who lived in a very cool, old house. Turns out, the house was the house of the first president of Ghana! We made it to Kokrobite later that night for Reggae night, Lots of lively music. After the band stopped playing, we went for walk on the beach and sat by a bonfire while Rastafarians played the drums and sang African music.
