Dear All Greetings from the island of Sao Vicente, my fourth and final island on my Cape Verdean tour. I really like this island, and I have found its capital city, and main city by far, Mindelo quaint, charming and very characterful.

This afternoon I've been reading and rereading your 2017 trip to West Africa. Somehow, I had missed this one. This summer trip certainly offered a varied experience.
