Seasons- update

As the dry season progresses and the cooling effects of the Harmattan diminish, the days grow uncomfortably hot.
This week Bolgatanga has recorded afternoon temperatures of 40 degrees centigrade- uncomfortably above body heat!

Besides taking plenty of cold water, favourite for cooling off and refreshment are a non- alcoholic drink, Malta, which is sweet, but with the biting bitterness of malt, Alvaro, a fruit drink also malt flavoured, and Fan Ices.



Fan Ices- in strawberry, chocolate, vanilla or orange fruit (the last called Fandango) are sold in the bus parks by boys on bicycles.

At the Spot bars....
