Today we went on a tour of Elmina Castle. The castle was used to hold slaves until they were sold and taken to America. It was a sad reality to see where everything was started. When walking out of the castle a sign read this "an everlasting memory of the anguish of our ancestors may those who died rest in peace may those who return find their roots may humanity never again perpertrate such injustace against humanity we the living vow to uphold this."
After Elmina Castle we went to Coconut Grove Beach Resourt. It was a beatuiful beach filled with colorful shells.We enjoyed a lovely meal in front of the ocean. The view was beyond words. Several of the people tried concunt chicken with mushrooms. It was delicious. We enjoyed a dip in the pool and a walk on the beach. The afternoon was relaxing after our action pack week. Our evening was filled, sharing stories and laughter not among friends but now sisters.
