Manage episode 407399650 series 3560710
In this episode, Ken and Gisele share their experience exloring the Republic of Cabo Verde, volcanic islands. Their last stop on the Viking Jupiter before landing in Africa was Sao Vicente, one of the ten volcanic islands. Their trip was diverted from Senegal because there was some 'unrest'. There was a lot of poverty and these islands are somewhat new to tourists visiting so there was some panhandling, but it was beautiful and well worth a short visit.
They are recording on the third of four days at sea traversing the Atlantic en route to Africa. land in Casa Blanca Morocco on their final day where they will visit markets and do some site seeing. After that is a visit to Spain!
Tip of the day: We prefer carrying backpacks for essentials like airpods, ipads, books, medicines, toothpaste, underwear, etc. Also, if you are in a heavily packed area and people are coughing and sneezing, it might make sense to keep a mask in your pocket to use in these scenarios.
Ken and Gisele Fowle retired several years ago to pursue their lifelong love of travel. Their sojourns have taken them through hundreds of countries and have ranged from sublime cruises in the warm waters of the Caribbean to rugged treks up Mt. Everest and across the Galapagos.
