Ghana
Some pictures from my 3 week trip to Ghana. More to come when I get around to uploading my own.
Fort Patience in Apam, where we spent a night
Fort Victoria
A hearty breakfast of chocolate outside of Cape Coast Castle
Kakum National Park: In 1995 a Canadian NGO built a series of suspension bridges in the tree canopy 25m-50m off the ground. Each bridge can support the weight of two elephants!
A beach southwest of Takoradi where we spent a couple of days-tricky to get to but well worth the trouble.
Obligatory jumping picture and obligatory sunburn

Fort VictoriaThis picture is awesome, and here is why: when Obama visited Ghana he came here, and our tour guide, Dennis, had also given him a tour! Some interesting facts that Dennis shared:
-Michelle Obama got tired on the way up the hill
-Barack Obama suggested that Dennis should repaint the fort white but not paint the cannons to maintain their authenticity
-They told Dennis they would email him photos but Dennis has yet to receive them
