Impressive slavery forts on the South coast of Ghana
 |
| I slept in front of the hotel here, Cape Coast. I did quite some negotiating, the hotel owner wasn’t too happy with this bum standing in front of his hotel. When I made my breakfast that morning, setting up the table with my chair, he asked me to eat inside and not in front of his hotel. Fair enough  A bit later I ordered a breakfast in the hotel. |
