Babies are Awesome

Babies create some of the most fun interactions! This evening we had dinner at a nice Indian restaurant. Theo was more interested in the happenings of the restaurant than dinner and spent most of the time facing backwards in his high chair. Our waiter loved Theo! He ask if he could hold Theo while we walked to the door! Never had that happen back home. 🙂

Wind and Waves

Today the surf report was 6.6m (that's 22ft for those back home) at 13 seconds with the wind blowing at 54kph gusting to 75kph. We walked out to the point south of town to witness the event. The waves were impressive!

I managed to make it out surfing for the first time as well. (Sorry, no pictures). The beach (Meia Praia) is sheltered from the full swell, but it was still one of the biggest days I have been out in. A solid double overhead. I made it outside (even being out of surfing shape!), but didn't catch any waves. Too chicken to sit deep enough. It was refreshing to get in the water though!

The plants on our deck had a bit of a rough time of it too:

Getting Started

This blog is intended to catch daily tidbits of our journey. Hopefully you will find it fun, maybe even inspiring!

Today is our fifth full day in Portugal. Theo slept through the night for the first time in the new time zone! Finally feeling rested, we are heading out the door for espresso and a walk to some hidden beaches. We have a few hours before the rain returns and intend to make the most of it!

Afternoon update:

We never made it to the beach... the thunderstorm was quite impressive. Leslie captured a video of us waiting in a café for the rain. It doesn't really do it justice, but it is still impressive!
