Imigrants wave

Hy all:

We are living hard days in the Canary Islands. We are a small archipelago 80 Km from Africa´s west coast coast. Since last weekend near a thousand african inmigrants have arrived to our coasts. This is much more than our land can stand. Regional goverment is asking for help to the national goverment, because we don´t have resources enough yet to give inmigrants a bed.

They travel across the atlantic ocean from Africa to the Canary islands in ships like this, called "cayuco":
