Hiking in Achimota Forest Rserve


After a day's walk everything has twice its usual value.  ~George Macauley Trevelyan

In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks.  ~John Muir

It is 1st of May and the School and embassy is closed so Thea, Maximus and I went hiking in the Achimota Forest Reserve. Indeed it was very hot and humid but we brought with us water (which Thea was pouring over her head), cola, sprite, cake and sandwiches so we were stocked up for a few hours walk. On route we were trying to make fire with Thea’s magnifier glass and trace some animal trails in the mud. 


I also knew from some of my morning bicycle rides that there was some kind of monkey sanctuary in the forest, which we were trying to find. It turned out to be a little more than just a few monkeys…
