• San Miguel Island - Day 3

    April 12 in Portugal ⋅ ☀️ 15 °C

    Joined a 9am whale watching tour. Unfortunately, no one told the whales. A few had very brief surfaces but otherwise didnt really see much. However, was extremely blessed by a very active and bunch of showoff dolphins on the boat ride back. Occasionally jumping out of the water in synchronicity together.

    Back on dry land, Tita and i drove to Furnas, famous for its volcanic hot springs, steam coming out of the ground, a natural crater lake and a unique cooking style: putting the food underground and letting the heat of the volcano cook it. We had one of these meals and it was worth the drive. Very tasty. Plus the drive itself was gorgeous through the mountains. Stopped at the lake for a stroll and headed back to Ponta Delgado.

    Met up with Tita's parents for supper at Piteu, which is a place we found last week with a pretty good buffet of local dishes. Then Tita and i also went back to the Louvre winebar and finished the evening at Resves. All the staff remembered us from last week.

    Before leaving, they gave us a black light and a black light marker and asked us to write on the walls or furniture. Very unique hilarious concept. We both signed a bench seat together. I signed a lamp shade and tita also signed the bathroom paper dispenser haha. Maybe had to be there 😁

    I have been told to mention the current backgammon score is 3-2, and not in my favour. Yet 😁
