Fresh fruit and vegetables, eggs and bacon


Today´s the last day to load "Babette" full of goodies. We´ve raided the marcado, bought two huge, heavy German loaves of bread. Now we know what we can use against pirates boarding us.
We bought some good nut-cake and an Aloe Vera plant from some La Gomera Germans, too. And four back-pack trips to the marcado / supermarcado for a sack of potatos, onions, green bananas, green tomatoes, squash, green beens, apples, oranges, eggs, bacon, cheese and chorizo, and everything we forgot of "dry-goods".
The weather looks tolerable, so we´re off for the Cape Verdes tomorrow morning. A six day sail, incomunicado. So we´ll look up an i-café when we get there. See ya!!

Don't forget to study up on your piratey Insult-Swordfighting skills then, to get the upper hand (upper crust? Nah..) in those breadstick-mêlées:


Insult: I'll skewer you like a sow at a buffet!
Comeback: When I'm done with you, you'll be a boneless filet.

Insult: Would you like to be buried, or cremated?
Comeback: With you around, I'd rather be fumigated.
