Day 7

We're in the Cape Verde islands and, no, we didn't sink!

We have made it to port.

There was a small hole in the tanks that store our drinking water and someone is now fixing it.

But I'm glad we stopped here.

The islands here are like another world-green, lush, warm and sunny-not like the concrete jungle we left at home.

Unfortunately, we can't stay here for long.
