I'm not Eleanor, but YES, almost certainly,
1) Black saloon noticed and commented on, cruising the streets beforehand and
2) light brown (colour from memory) camper van spotted (for several days parked with man living in it) that disappeared evening Joana did. Found abandoned 7 miles away (approx) in PdL
3) The picture of Madeleine on a man?womans back in Zinat, Rif mountains of Africa, also show a little girl walking who is almost certainly Joana.
European businessmen used to keep hareems of chiildren in Africe. Webpage showing this has now been whooshed but it has been on here. Little doubt whooshed on here too.
4) Furthermore when I pointed out that the little girl walking who looked like Joana had Joanas very unusual legs (no inner calf to speak of) a great deal of trouble was taken to produce an image showing good calves.
That is proof that someone is hiding things.
Joana was abducted.
5) She also had strange ankles and these were shown on the original Zinat photo.
6) And distinctive forehead
Before I go any further, for those that don't know, I used to teach figure drawing at secondary level. I am also an HNC qualified Engineering Designer used to drawing massive designs. I have an unusually keen eye.
Furthermore having spent hours/weeks studying maps and reports, I think I know where Joana was abducted.
Get your Google Earth going and have a look .There are two spots en route back from the shops where the following three criteria occur
1) where the camper van was parked and
2) the likely place of the abduction/kidnap.
3) Very very quiet spot where almost nobody goes
In both cases the abduction spot is virtually adjacent to the parking spot and very very quiet
My main suspect abduction area is within yards of Joanas home, which incidentally is the last house with a front door to the road and Just waste land beyond. It is a no thru road and unmade for the last bit called *Praceta dos Cooparentos*. There is a 7 vehicle parking bay to the east of Joanas house which usually was almost empty. This was less than 40 metres from Joanas front door
I think the motorhome was probably parked in the most easterly bay, because that was immediately adjacent to a small shrubbed, wooded area where the occupant would have been able to do his ablutions unseen.
Additionally, immediately opposite this parking bay is a short cut up a wooded bank to the village and the shop that Joana visited on the other side of the village..
* Figuiera * is quite hilly and the bank is steep. No houses overlook it. The cut through was built to take the stanchions for carrying power cables. To access the short cut from Joanas road one had to climb a set of step ladders resting against a fairly high wall !!! But it was obviously used. And at the time Joana vanished it was lightly shrubbed and wild, not landscaped as it appears now.
Please note there are a large number of Figuiera’s in PT. This is about 3 miles NNW of Alvor.
Suggest you go into street scene as well as GE if you are interested. Take hard images cos this will probably vanish. Whooshed !
The parking lot for the motorhome was immediately opposite the stepladders with a perfect view of the cut through. The road on the village side is called *Rua Martin Alfonso Pacheco Gracias Arquitecto * . With GE street scene you will see the step ladders and the beginning of the short cut and also the parking lot. IIRC it doesn't properly show Joanas home, probably cos the road there is unmade
The short cut ran between *Praceta dos Cooparentos* and * Rua Martin Alfonso Pacheco Gracias Arquitecto *
Darkness was falling. No one around. Carnival going on at the edge of the village. What a perfect set up for an abduction!
I take no notice of the obviously wrongful case against Leonor and Joao.
What were Amaral and Cristovao thinking of, with so much make-believe and IMO lies?
Joana was taken.
There is a second abduction /parking place but I prefer this one.
