In a Ghanaian market, a woman pounds dough into fufu with a mortar and pestle. Cars zip around villagers in zigzag gowns of crimson, orange, and indigo, balancing baskets on their heads. This is Africa, right now – a myriad-hued mosaic of cultures, landscapes, and ancient wilderness with a richness and diversity that’s difficult to comprehend. This is the Africa that few people have a chance to see, a vast continent of awe-inspiring beauty, natural drama, hope, promise, friendship, and generosity. Many past travelers say that a trip to Africa changed their lives – broadening their imagination of the world in extraordinary ways. Our cruise along West Africa’s coast, featuring some of the continent’s most attractive places, is rare, indeed.
