Ave mates !
We are in Mindelo on Sao Vincente, we started the Cape Verdes in Sal where the Pérés joined us (whom I know since I was a baby). Then we went to Boa Vista then to Sao Nicolau and after to Santa Lucia where we spent 24 hours on a desert island (without our parents and the tent was terrible) and finally to Sao Vincente.
On Santa Lucia we ate combat rations from the French army which were delicious. Most of the time we spent on this marvellous island was surfing the enormous waves.
A few days before that we went to the best beach in the Cape Verdes. It was paradise with its enormous waves and giant dune.
I also adored the Sacred Crocodile Pool in Gambia (they are spoilt like kings !). They are free to roam about and I even stroked one (I wasn’t afraid at all because the trainer said they were harmless). The trainer doesn’t have to protect the humans from the crocodiles but he has to protect the crocodiles from the humans !
Vale
20th September now – we have come back to Sal where we are doing school !

salut les amis, ça fait toujours très plaisir d’avoir des vos nouvelles.
Nous sommes rentrés d’une saison à Malte pour Séb et à St Tropez pour Dodo et moi.
Dodo a fait livreur de sushis à Port Grimaud!!! comme premier travail ça lui a plu énormément, et il a bien gagné, de quoi s’acheter une batterie ( drums)de professionnel!
Béa et Titude ont passé un été de paresse entre la pelouse et les tapis de la maison.
Demain nous descendrons d’Arles avec Pharo , comme ça bientot nous pourrons enfin mâter.
on vous embrasse fort et bonne rentrée aux garçons!!!

Hello, about these French army combat rations – do you know the film “water”? It was produced in 1984 by some Monthy Pythons and the subject is a parody on the occupation of Grenada. This film shows a lovely scene when the Légion Etrangère is landing and then the menu is announced…
Some Native American Indian tribes used to send their boys into the desert for three days to become adult men…
I hope you liked it and had a good experience.
