CiCi Beach — Phillip Orchard Like

Basking in Peace on War-less CeCe Beach in Monrovia, Liberia

The smoke is still settling after 14 years of civil war in Liberia, the desperate, diminutive West African nation with a dashing coastline. But here, on this Atlantic beach, under the shade of this lofty palm, with this cool Club Beer in your hand, the violent haze drifts away pacified across the sea. Rebuilding a war-torn nation asks everything of you, rocking your worldview. But an afternoon at this soft, steadfast beach, perhaps the last pure place in town, leaves you, NGO volunteers, UN peacekeeping troops and bleary-eyed Liberians together restored.
