Can You Tell Where It Is Yet?

That fishing one. I'd been looking all around West Africa. 

What is the British flag for? Anyone?

Looks like all the boats use generic flags for identification, cheaper than getting their own ones made up. Bit depressing that the easiest way to find it was searching for slave fort.

I thought it was a memorial. It looks like there are crosses and poppies there. 

I searched for Portuguese colonies first because of the name of the boy in the football shirt, then started on British colonies.

I realised it was a Streetview image rather than just a photo, and there aren't many countries in West Africa that have had that treatment. I tried Senegal first, then Ghana, and as I was going west-to-east I found it quickly.

Going along that coast, every town has a slave prison, slave museum, slave castle... it's horrific.

Yeah I started on the British Caribbean islands then switched to West Africa.

I never saw it before. I can't quite remember how I got there. The running track so not just a football stadium and the colour of the seating is not usually green. Kind of along they lines.


In fairness, I thought I would need to drop a few clues on that one. Left a tiny bit of Arabic in, but other than that there wasn’t much
