Got a visit from someone selling lapas this morning – only in the Azores do you get excited about someone selling something door to door! We bought 1 kilo of lapas for 7.50 euros and there must have been at least 75 in the bag. That'll make for a great appetizer tonight. Yum!!
We had hoped to make a trip back to Calheta – black sand beach and a great café. But it was a bit too windy for that pool. So we took a short drive towards Madalena and went to one of the swimming pools near that town.
Good choice! The pool was protected from the wind. Great fresh water bay (although a bit chilly!) and some great snorkeling on the ocean side.
Ashley was out again with her camera snapping lot’s of great underwater pics.
Once again we have amazing views of Pico Mountain.
And of course a great café to keep the adults stocked up on Sagres and ice cream for the kids.
I’m going to miss this!
Ashley and Luke head in for a late afternoon snorkel.
Picked up pizza on the way home. Our new favorite – chorizo and onion! We also sliced up some tuna sashimi and Griff cooked up the lapas. What a feast!
Picked up a chocolate bolo (cake) at the store this afternoon as well. Quite tasty – german chocolate.
Finished the evening off with a trip down to our local Sao Roque Festa. An entertaining night watching Bang Bang Roses (a Guns n Roses Tribute band from Lisbon)!
Happy (early) Birthday Todd and Tricia!!
