Songster was fixed and we were ready to go sailing and testing our new steering cables and chain!

We had a nice overnight sailing to our next destination: Peninsula de Maraú. It was almost full moon so we had a very bright night.

It was the first time we were sailing only as family since long time ago. Last time we didn’t have any friend sailing with us in Cape Verde, sailing from the island of Sal to Santiago. And before that, was in October 2022, sailing from Marrocos to Canaries.
 
I love our dynamics onboard, but I think Christopher demands much more energy from us now than he was doing months ago. He keeps on developing very fast, so we have to keep on sailing in order not to miss the rhythm of sailing with a toddler 🙃

We had a calm and uneventful trip, and before we knew, we were arriving into paradise!
The entrance of the bay was a bit tricky, as there’s a big sand bank. So we calculated to enter in the full tide, so there was no current also.

We went directly to Goió Island, where we took a mooring buoy. We stayed one night onboard of Songster and the next day we left to meet my best friends in Taipu de Fora. We rented a house there and we left Songster for a week!
