We`ve decided on our honeymoon

richardlionheart

Hey ! congratulations btw.

We returned on Tuesday evening from Cape Verde stayed on Sal
at the RIU Funana AI. it was around 25 degrees every day
and the constant breeze keeps it perfect .

Its a fabulous holiday destination ,the people are wonderfully friendly
( the Cape Verde islands once were Portuguese but gained their independance in the 1970's )

Cape Verde is on the same latitude as Jamaica but just one hour behind GMT so there is no jet lag !

As it is still not been over developed it has mile upon mile of mile of untouched coastline and you will have entire beaches to yourselves :j

there are lots of activities the kite surfing world champion lives
on Sal , as it has year round perfect conditions for wind / kite surfing i was in awe just watching them.

last year we went to the Gambia for our winter break
but from now on it will be the Cape !

+ no need for the anti malaria pills we had to take in Gambia
that used to be around £100 for the 2 of us.

have fun

Looks gorgeous...my problem is that OH doesn't like pools or beaches as he has bad legs (very bad varicose veins and prone to ulcers so he doesn't do legs in public!
