The Oddest thing…
Wednesday, May 26th, 2004One of the Oddest, yet not surprising things about this island is… (drumroll please)
cows. Cows are all over the place here. Most of the island is farmland, so there is alot of cows. Sometimes, they are walking on the roads in large herds and we have to stop and wait for them. The Portuguese are very protective of the cows, there is a law that says if you kill a cow, you the family all the money they could’ve made off the milk of it, it’s offspring, plus the cost of the cow and whatever else, I forget. My dad told me that. Anyways, it’s pretty odd.
