Mint-tea Time

Day 134: Go on a photography adventure.

Our first trip was to the little village next to the airport where the manufacture of a ceramic was located.  These few buildings were left there by the builders of the hotel complexes and the airport. Throughout few years they became inhabited by immigrants from Senegal or the locals from the islands of Cape Verde.

Day 220: Sip on a poolside beer.

The hotel complex of Karamboa was almost the same. A bit prettier and smaller, though. There were no cockroaches and there was huge sandy beach. With waves, that could be easily handled. So we were actually swimming after all, not just trying not to drown. :P

We got a room which was exactly the same, except for one missing sink and we could finally unpack our suitcases! And had to wake up really early to catch at least some sunbeds, because everyone was gathered on the beach, not scared of the sea anymore.

Day 148: Put your feet in the ocean.

AFRICA

My first time there. It wasn't what I was expecting. It wasn't hot and it wasn't as sunny as you are used to see in movies. The sun set at five o'clock and most of the time it was kinda cloudy. Not every day, but still, the sky wasn't clear the whole time.

It was also the first time in my life, that I had been in two hotel complexes throughout the holiday. The Touareg was the first one, from which are these photos. There were little problems, like a cockroach on the terrace, the room at the farthest end of the hotel or huge waves where I sank my awesome sunglasses :( anyway, these were the problems we could live with, but when you have the opportunity for a change, you would be stupid not to take it. 

So after three days we moved to the second hotel in the bay on the other side of the island. Which will be a part II., 'cause I have SO MANY photos.
