A long overdue update
Internet has been pretty ordinary lately, so my apologies for no recent updates, and for the brevity of this one.
Wendy and I are in the last country of this trip – Benin – after spending just a few days in Togo, which is small and not all that interesting.
Highlights since I last wrote were a monkey sanctuary at a small village in eastern Ghana and even more so, the nearby village of Wli, which has West Africa’s highest waterfall. The surrounding scenery is probably the prettiest we’ve seen since the Moroccan High Atlas in mid-February.
We’ve just got one week left now so we’ll probably just relax for most of it in two coastal towns here in Benin – Ouidah, an important slave departure point centuries ago, and the colonial town of Porto Novo.
