Today’s picks…
It’s got to be good if the locals are waiting for the café to open. These were regulars. Coffee and Port came without ordering. John Travolta’s Staying Alive played on the flat screen TV. For me, a jam and butter roll with a double expression are perfect.
Baby on board. Stackable…backpack, baby seat. When mother and baby took the bed beside me, I admit I was less than hospitable. Think about it from the mother’s perspective as she could never set the baby down. No showers or trips to the toilet without infant. Feeding is simple…breast feed. But what about the diapers? I can’t imagine a box of pampers in her backpack. I hadn’t the constitution to ask.
You’ve got mail. All houses have a mail box yet I have not seen a post person delivering mail any time or any place. No Amazon packages on doorstep.
Encore. Today was a repeat performance of walking by the ocean. Very calming.
Today’s real estate picks.
That’s how it’s done, by hand. Stone roads are long lasting but murderous for long distance walking. Was it only yesterday when I was strolling on boardwalks by the beach?
Surfers and fisherman keep the same hours. Sunrise they’re water bound.
Unexpected things trigger vivid flashbacks. Yet, if asked to recall these memories, I couldn’t. It’s as if constant walking makes my mind more receptive to memories. How fortunate it is to remember so many fine people, places, and experiences.
Surf City USA…make that Surf City…Portugal with amazing waves. One surfer looked as if he was shot from a canon with arms and legs fully splayed forming a huge “X” in the sky before crashing into the ocean. These waves aren’t for amateurs. Ericeira (25 miles from Lisbon) is ranked #6 as top ten surfing destination.
