Exit (saida in Portuguese) papers from the Maritime Police that allow us to leave Cape Verde. The heat and humidity here in the tropics conspire to wilt any papers.
While we are at sea, comments to the blog will appear on the blog, but I won't be able to read them (I just have limited email access via satellite phone now) until we reach another port and find an internet cafe.
