Cape Verde - Calheta de São Miguel - 1st of June 2018


Because of it being a public holiday we had to get on an open back truck type of vehicle, in order to make it to Calheta de São Miguel where we were supposed to arrive by mid day, which we actually did.
 
 
One of the main reasons we drove to Calheta was to have Gabriela meet her "protegé" (Elias) and Inês the little boy she had supported over the first 4 months of the current year.
 

 
As we were going up hill we came across some acquaintances, as well as unexpected situations until we finally made it to Naté where we were expected for lunch. Prior to that we spent a few magic moments with the family, got to know the latest news and soon moved onto Té where Inês had a chance to meet Herber and his family.

Because it was International children's day we didn't manage to meet the few children we had brought things for, so we trusted Leiria and Elizabeth to hand them out later.

Before driving back to Praia we still made it to Celene's where we met her stepfather whom we handed her new dress to.
