Boa Vista Touareg day 4

I'm sure that lots of amazing, interesting things happened in the world today ... but none of them happened here in Boa Vista.  It was a very quiet, uneventful day in our lives, offering plenty of time to relax and recharge, which we exploited to the maximum. 

Last evening some bright dingbat fiddled with my phone and inadvertently set the alarm for 07.00 this morning! ... oh, wait ... that dingbat would have been me!  So that is what time we woke up.  I have now corrected the error so we should not be disturbed again so rudely.

After breakfast we settled beside the pools, which is where we stayed for most of the day.  Read books, listened to music, drank cold beverages and soaked up the sun.  We took a stroll onto the beach and managed to get some super photos.  It was much calmer today, probably more "normal" than 2 days ago.

After lunch we had a video chat with Nicola, which was nice.  Ann gave her a short virtual tour of the pool areas, which included the donkeys that had returned for a visit.

This evening we had supper in the Cape Verdean styled restaurant.  The food was excellent, as expected.  We were able to taste some "Cachupa", which is the traditional dish of the islands.  Basically a slow cooked meat and vegetable stew.  Nice, but not on our list of favourites. 

That about the lot for today.  Enjoy the photo.
