Sahara sand in the air - a photo on Flickriver

            With all my recent travels I more a less lose some memories that I have to bring back by looking again at my pictures. 

This shot I took when I was staying at Ponta do Sol on the wonderful island of Sao Antao, the island for people that like to hike at Cabo Verde.

Unfortunately there was a Sahara sand storm spoiling the fun for a few days, and hiking became far less enjoyable because of the low visibility. (Yes that reminds me of something).

The sea at Ponta do Sol is wonderful, huge waves and rough waters are objects to look at for hours, and so I did.
