Sao Tome, Sao Tome and Principe, February 1, 2016
Susan's Story, Atlantic Cruise & Safari, January 2016
Our first visit to the nation of Sao Tome and Principe. We started with a visit to Fort Sao Sebastiao which holds the National Museum. There were exhibits on the revolution, independence, sea turtles, cocoa plantations, the slave trade, the Bapeta Massacre, and the Carnation Revolution. Then we visited the fishing village of Pantufo. Back in Sao Tome we went to the market, the Sao Tome Palace, Cathedral Se, a cocoa market, and Independence Square. We attended two different cultural shows. Again, meeting the people and children was the high point of the day. A wonderful day!!! /susanClick a photo to view or click first photo to see a slide show.
