Check out these five great posts I ran across this week. Good stuff!
Patrick and Akila at The Road Forks have a lovely post about how serendipity can hide in the most unexpected places (or ailments). In this case, a chest cold delayed them just long enough to stumble into a monk’s funeral in Chiang Mai, Thailand. Excellent writing and beautiful photographs. Unexpected funeral
Lillie at Around the World “L” has penned a sensitive and sobering piece about the Cape Coast slave castle in Ghana. Cape Coast Slave Castle
Answering one of my long-unanswered questions, SteveO of Asian Ramblings says “snake, please.” Snake: Does It Taste Like Chicken?
Chris at Chris Around the World has a juicy post: 5 Reasons to Visit Granada. My favorite is #3: you can hike in the rain forest in the morning and be on the beach by afternoon. 5 Reasons to Visit Granada
