Land ahoy in the Cape Verdes

Very well earned cooked breakfast on arrival
Position 16:53N 24:59W at anchor


Yippee, we have arrived in the anchorage at Mindelo, the Cape Verde Islands, we have knocked off about a third of our Atlantic Crossing. 

We arrived in the dark, something we are always careful not to do but we have had enugh of being out there and didn't fancy heaving to for 5 of so hours so nudged our way in very carefully and slowly into the inner harbour, following our friends on Bandit's excellent instructions.

More to come soon after a much deserved sleep  PS.... WE ARE FIRST TO ARRIVE!!!!
