Our group split this weekend with some of our friends travelling to the West Region while the rest of us stayed in Accra. I personally found it crucial to stay and explore the city, considering this was perhaps the only weekend we had free from travel. The weekend turned out to be awesome. On Friday night a few of us went to Twist, a bar close to our house which we have gone already several times because of their, um, special treatment for NYU students—Twist membership cards which include two glasses of vodka pineapple for 5 cedis (roughly $3.75) and access to the dj stand/computer where we can basically play whatever song we want. Not a bad a deal.
Anyway, we met our Ghanaian friends at Twist and we headed to Champs, a bar located at La Paloma hotel, which hosts karaoke night on Fridays. The place was packed with half locals and half internationals and some old guys playing pool in the back. Our NYU crowd and Ghanaian friends deemed it appropriate to go on stage and sing the lyrics of “Whenever, Wherever” by Shakira. I think we did a decent job. Too bad there aren´t any pictures of it.
