• Alice in Wonderland

    Jun 19–20 in Portugal ⋅ ☁️ 21 °C

    So we stayed, went grocery shopping and found my personal „Why-Café“ with strong Alice-in-Wonderland-vibes. Just in the mountains (visible from the beach obviously) is a Convent, by a stream. And in that backyard is a café with a lush green garden. As we arrived about 30 min before closing time we asked if we’d get some coffee + cake here and the answer by the waiter was „Here everything is possible“. I believed him. And we got lemonade and delicious cake, could hangout in the garden and let Jaro play in the soft stream. It felt so good that we decided to stay another night on the beach; we also found another spot that was just a tat more cozy.
    The next morning we went for a small hike along that river from the café. There we found rock pools which Jaro was able to play in; he was so brave and happy with the water.
    Later we had lunch back at the café (which unfortunately took ages due to popular demand by many "Camino de Santiago hikers") and then we went on to cross the boarder.
    It feels good that we’ve taken our time to say good bye to Portugal.
