Kakum Rainforest Park - followed by lunch with crocodiles

Kakum Rainforest Park is a 360sqkm reserve of relatively virgin rainforest. It contains hundreds of species of butterflies and many mammals - although we didn't see many of these since our guide was on the phone with her son. He used to be a farmer near Kumasi when she spoke to him last year. She was surprised to learn he was now in Italy.

For lunch we stopped at the curiously-named Hans Cottage Botel, which doubles up as a crocodile farm. Fortunately we weren't on the menu for lunch, although some of my chicken kebab did end up in the water as crocodile bait
