    At a time of very unstable and dangerous situation, using a chopper was the safest and fastest way to deliver assistance to people upcountry.

    Walking onto the ferry
    by kim83_50158
    Well...the only international airport in the country is in Freetown at Lungi. Lungi is actually across a "small" body of water. So to get to or from the airport without driving for an hour or two is to take the helicopter or ferry. We took the helicopter when we arrived because it was late night/early morning and we had so much luggage and no way to get to the ferry (at least a mile away from the airport). On the way back, we didn't have any luggage except for two suitcases between all of us. So it was easier for us to get it around. Unfortunately, we had to be at the ferry office early to catch te bus to get onto teh ferry ( you don't have to catch the bus--it guarantees you to get onto the flight) and wait around at the dock and then load with the other hundreds of people or so and then get on the bus again to drive to the airport and then waited for 3 hours in line in the airport to go through customs. Then waited in an upstairs lobby at the airport for our flight that arrived late and left even later!

    Beaches along Freetown's peninsula

  • While many beaches are exceptional along the Freetown peninsula, I recommend being more adventurous and head past beach "River Number Two," which is now getting crowded and you have to pay $2.50 for parking, to a more remote and pristine beach, "Tokkeh." Great lunch of fresh oysters, fish, chips, salad and even lobster will run you $10 or less. Ask for Hassan by the spot where the old hotel swimming pool was. Palm tree huts are available and overnighting is awesome. Bring your own drinks.

    This is a national monument! There is a national museum nearby as well. The museum is the only one in the world to claim a tree as an address. They put lights on the trunk of the tree. Whether those light up at night, I am not sure, but it is a huge prized monument.

    In Freetown itself, there is a very nice beach that is mainly use by locals.

    On Sat. it is not that busy !! Probably the best day of the week to relax a few hours !!!

    FYI, there is nearly no wave in Freetown. Swimming in the ocean is very safe !

    Freetown is a city sandwiched between the Atlantic Ocean and the mountains.

    If you move from the beach to the hill top, the temperature can be quite different and the views can be truly breathtaking.

    These pix are not the best but give you already a little idea of what can be Freetown from the hills.

    The beach of Sussex is also incredible.

    Nearby, there is a nice guesthouse managed by a mix italian/SL family known from everybody in Freetown. Franco will welcome you like a member of his family.
