Promo Shooting
That one time we were doing a photo shoot to advertise the activities at the hotels, and then I had to go into the water and rescue movieStar.
Fun times.

The “Official” Day
Even though we had our church wedding a couple of weeks later, today marks the day when we got married at the Embassy in São Tomé.
Today, as far as the state goes, is the date when we stopped being single.
We had flown over to the big island two days earlier, and stayed at a friends place in the middle of the jungle.
There was a huge storm during the night, landslides had covered part of the road to the city. Our friends were worried the roads could be blocked later on, so we got dressed, had a quick breakfast, I had a beer (yes, nervous), and we made our way to the city, and the embassy.
We got married. And cried.
Quick stop at the hotel for a pizza and a dip in the pool. Off to the airport, short flight over to the small island, got on the back of a passing pickup truck, and soon we were home.
I was the happiest man on earth.

Príncipe, the Video Edition
I keep talking about the island, because I keep thinking about the island, and how much we miss it and wish we were there.
I’ve shown a few photos from it already, and the slideshow from the wedding. Today I remembered movieStar produced a couple of videos for the company, and they’re pretty good at showing the place, and the energy over there.
If you’d like to see them, you’ll find the links below. Beware, they’re YouTube links.
It’s our second home, hope you like it.
First Visit
Feels like a lifetime ago.

While his mother tended to the vegetable garden, the sweet baby waited patiently.
I often wonder how they’re all doing.

The King.
Party day at the island.
🎉🇸🇹
Not the biggest waterfall, not by a long shot, but it feels great after the hike to get there. Another thing we miss from the island.

Rainy day at home, what is one supposed to do ? Reminisce.
It rains a lot in Príncipe as well, but somehow rain doesn’t feel the same over there.

Out fishing…

Follow up to the umbrella post, here’s another in in use during actual rain. Nature being cool and humans, sometimes, cool as well.
