That's how I felt about two weeks ago. And what to do at such a moment in life? Though it seems impossible at the time, the best thing to do is to stop and breathe, breathe and stop. That's exactly what I did. In the midst of too much going on, I took my favourite gals (my mother and daughter) out for lunch at Tribe, Afia Beach Hotel. The lunch was great, but the best part was the walk on the beach that followed:
The Beach (aren't we lucky to have this in the centre of Accra?)
The Daughter
The Chalets, neatly hidden by palmtrees
And suddenly, after inhaling the beautiful sea air, I could smile again and life was back to being good.

Luky you Maya! and btw, fab pics. Is there a proper sandy beach in Kent? Nope..all we got is folkestone and gravel filled Brighton..home sweet home.
oo vilka härliga bilder....o vilka minnen!!! :) kram
Gravesend has a lovely riverfront, Juanita, If you like that greyish, rainy, British riverside, lol!
Ja verkligen, Tigger! Tänkte mycket på er när vi var där. Ta med bebben hit nästa år vetja!
Lovely pics! Nothing like a beach trip that makes everything seem right again. A Kenyan friend of mine was staying at Afia Beach Hotel last year so we had fun hanging on the beach...a surprisingly clean beach.
Yeah it is surprisingly clean, Abena, but I guess it's still quite undiscovered, or maybe the hotel cleans it up...?
Don't try taking a walk to Art Centre from there though, we did a few years ago, there's a huge dump between the hotel and the Art Centre. Very disappointing that the beach is used that way.
Love the pic of you and your girl!
Hi MM - thanks for the welcome back over at Holli's Ramblings.
Ahh, the beach walk. It always cures the stress of life!
I went to a meditation last week also which was a refreshing push to just take the time to stop and breathe.
Thanks Kajsa!
Oooh, Holli, meditation sounds like something I'll have to try soon.
