Jaro and his bike are in Cape Verde #5 (middle February/2019).....


Cape Verde champion Vady Fonseca and friends visited today at my apart-hotel.  Very pleased to have finally met Vady in person - what a charming man!


I was not sure if we could communicate, but he speaks almost perfect English, so there was no problem at all (apologies for my lack of knowledge of Portuguese). 



  Thanks to Vady for the photos - and for the organization of the ride  - great group!

A few more photos of Monte Gordo, from the roof of Zena Star.... 

While not excessively hot during the day, evenings are nice and cool -- sometimes long pants are in order.  It might be hotter in summer though - this is 16°30" N latitude, so I imagine that it does warm up a bit in July and August.
