Dispatch #8: Good news – our Land Rover has arrived!
Greetings from Mindelo on the Island of Sao Vicente, discovered in 1462 by the Portuguese. The British established a coaling station here for trans-Atlantic steam ships and much of the architecture reminds one of early Cape Town. There was even a Royal Mail and Telegraph Service and a cricket team. But the real reason for lingering here is music, haunting Creole melodies that are the sole of Cape Verde and the link to the African main land. Today we get the good news that the expedition Land Rover has arrived in Ghana will keep you posted.
