Day 53 - perfect beach day!

Clock change again today - it made a lovely change to wake up and it be daylight! Marla did try and get us up at 5:30am, but with a bit of gentle persuasion she went back to sleep.

It was very misty in the morning, the forecast was for sunshine so we were hoping the sun would break through.

Another change this morning, we had toast for breakfast! Oh the things that we get excited 🤣

After breakfast we went to the beach for a wander and we played frisbee with Marla for a while.

Back to camp for lunch, simple cheese roll with a glass of Vinho Verde or two.

I started a new crochet project, it’s easier to pick up and put down than cross stitch. It’s going to be a pink and white houndstooth cowl.

The sun was still shining this afternoon so we hit the beach again for more walkies. Back to camp for an afternoon beverage and a sit down…. which didn’t quite go to plan for me. I was moving my chair around the campsite to enjoy the most of the sunshine, but our pitch is mostly in the sand and it’s fairly loose sand. I plonked myself down and one of my back legs disappeared completely leaving me very lopsided and almost on the floor 😂😂

Dinner this evening was a cold pasta salad with a lot of peppers, onion and tomato. Very tasty but the strongest onion I’ve had in ages.

The sun is setting quite early now, so tonight we’ve been catching up on the latest season of All Creatures Great and Small - it’s felt like a proper Sunday night!Read more
