Day 11: June 23 - Hang in Cascais

 June 23 -  Good morning from Cascais.  I am loving this place.  8:30 tee time on the coast of Portugal.


Selfie on 12thie.  

The most Western point of Europe from the par 3 11th

While we were golfing the girls were shopping and stopped for lunch.  No you didn't.

Not quite the picnic basket


                          And yes you did...
Foot message anyone?

Got back from golf and lounged at the pool.  I'm reading a great book on longevity

I don't think the author recommends my pool snacks


This could be me at the pool after a few more bags

Or I can stop eating everything and look like Sven.

Anniversary World (tomorrow)

Sea World

Dave turned Sunshine on to her new drink of choice.  It's gin, honey, and egg whites on top to make you feel healthy while drinking it.
Gin Fizzy

I still like Palm Trees.  Anyone with me?


Dave made reservations at the new hot spot in Cascais.  Same chef as the lunch we had in Lisbon.  

Jose knows his shit.  Check out Mare on the coast


Great tuna tartare, sea bass, steak.  Can't beat the location on the water.  Better than most.
Thanks Jose

and give Bruno a raise

We ended the night at our favorite Gelato place and ran into a group of traveling SC Trojan grads.  After giving them a ton of shit for going to the inferior school, we treated them for dessert.  Pay it forward.  You seem to be all great kids, but...

 June 24 -  Good morning and Happy Anniversary Sunshine.  I love you.  Seems like yesterday...

Pretty, pretty good. Next, I took a tile decorating class, where you picked a local street and decorated tiles.  I decided to pick the street where Dave made reservations for dinner.  Just as an artistic memory.  The street is Afonso Sanches.  Named after his brother "Dirty". After pottery class, I decided to go cliff diving.  That was really fun.   This was my classmate Felipe.  I am right after him The beach here gets packed on Saturdays.  This is right outside our hotel.  If you look closely, you can see me jet skiing in the distance.  It was super fun. After jet skiing, D...

 June 25th -  Bye bye Portugal. We are on our way home.  Dave and I played golf in the am and now heading to the Lisbon airport hotel before we all get on an early flight.   Thank you Sunshine for planning such a great trip.  And Dave and Steph for being such amazing travel buddies.  We had the best time with both of you.   Also, thank you Kim Diaz and Saka for also helping plan the trip.  And to our friends, Tim, Maria, and Luis.  It was great to see you. So I was thinking about what to watch on the plane ride home and I thought some pics from the trip would give me some inspiration...
