| Cape Coast coastline |
Onto a bit of history, and a spot of camping on the beach. Cape coast castle saw around 25% of the 35million slaves that left Africa over 3,000 years around the 16th-19th centuries

The cells in the castle were where the slaves were kept for up to 3 months awaiting boats, mainly to the Americas. The conditions were unbelievably difficult with little space or light and we saw a similar story at Elmina castle a little further along the coast.

| Girl at Brenu |
We were camping at Brenu, just down the beach from a fishing village. It was great to escape the heat at night and fall asleep with the water pounding the beach.

| Kakum NP |
A short drive from Brenu took us into rainforest and the canopy walkways of Kakum National Park
