Ghanaian Travel Diary: Cape Coast

We headed off to Cape Coast where our first stop was the Cape Coast Castle. This was a site that was extremely important for me and my brothers to see and become aware of.
Slavery began in Africa, and it's important to learn about what happened and who tried to stop it and who perpetuated it. There was definitely the appropriately serious tone among me and my family, which was a nice contrast to our normal jokey manner. The trip was a necessary one and one that I'm glad we took.
We headed back to our hotel (Kokado) and went to sleep with exciting thoughts of the canopy walk we would go on the next day.
