Some shots of a recent contract in Sierra Leone. A very poor country with levels of poverty beyond belief. Having stayed at the Lunghi 'Hilton' I'll never complain about my living standards again!
Lunghi International Airport, home base.
A beautiful deserted island. A perfect getaway........
A bit crowded though. Where do they get fresh water? Up the far end of the island there is a soccer pitch that is available at low tide. Complete with goal posts with nets. You'd see the guys out paddling hard all day in their dugouts and then running around like lunatics in the evening. No idea where they get their energy.
Heading off shore over Sherbo Island.
Freetown in the morning.
Murray Town, with the UN heliport right of center.
Crossing Yawri Bay.
The town of Bonthe. Anyone who is interested in big game fishing needs to go here. Several world record tarpon have been taken here. The old runway is on the right of town.
Island living.
Aberdeen Heliport.
Simple living. A grass hut.............
Murray Town, a suburb of Freetown
Running home on the last flight of the contract.
Stay tuned for shots of the ferry flight from Sierra Leone through Liberia, Ivory Coast and in to Ghana....................
