mandaly eske w pa janm ale okay? m te tande ke se yon bel kote. gen moun ki di Okay te sipoze kapital la

Wi, m'ale Okay plizyè fwa.  Premye bagay ki va atire atansyon ou lè ou rive Okay se ansyen bilding kolonyal yo.  Lè w'ap antre nan lavil Okay la, touswit ou deja genyen yon lide kouman lavi te ye nan tan lontan.  Avèk bon reparasyon, Okay ta kapab vin bèl vre. Pou kounye a si gen yon lokasyon, an Ayiti, ki kapab vòlè tit kapital la, mwen panse se Jakmèl.

question for you, the translation to the following sentence doesn't work for me. Am I missing something? Here it is: "Nou monte kap lè fè gwo van." This is what I got: we go up that is when it's very windy. That can't b right.

I think the Creole word kap in your sentence should be translated in English as kite.
kap → kite
monte kap → fly a kite
