Sierra Leone... again

Helicopter service is much improved. "New" choppers with seats, seat belts, a luggage hold (luggage no longer impedes emergency exit)... proper windows... a safety DVD and promotional DVD advertising Sierra Leone's tourist credentials (amazing beaches)... ear defenders... and a ceiling that doesn't leak... so all in all a much more pleasing experience! Possibly the Eastern European pilots of potentially dubious sobriety are the same tho...
Family Kingdom Hotel, Freetown. Random as ever, but this time I got a room upgrade. Personally I thought the bed was a bit small just for me... I slept on it sideways... just cos I could.
River Beach #2. Amazing as ever.
River Beach #2. It doesn't get much more perfect than this place.
Mobbed by munchkins...
Mobbing continued even as drove off... I'm quite the pied piper.
I am made Paramount Chief of my own chiefdom... very exciting... here I am with the chief who is now my "father". Wondering whether to invite my chiefdom to the wedding?
