Mindelo, Ilha Sao Vicente (Cape Verde)


What a surprise to wake up to such a desolate dry, dirt filled island after being in Brazil the past 2 weeks.  Kyle was ill with the flu and I was supposed to go snorkeling with Charles and Dianna, but there was a mix up on where we were to meet, so I missed the boat.  I hired a taxi to take me around the island. There really wasn't much to see, but the water is so beautiful!!!! At one point the driver got a call and he asked me if he could pick some people at the golf course.  Golf course???? "Sure"! I said.  Then we turned off on this bumpy dirt road and I panicked for a minute wondering how a golf course could be down this road and where the heck was I going to end up? Well, There it was. A genuine golf course made of dirt.  A couple from Michigan had spent the morning there. They said they had a blast!

All along this Main Street were people selling their vegetables and fish.
Once the Governor's Palace now the People's Palace since independence from Portugal in 1997.
