Pedro's family lunch

This morning I got up early to prepare    lunch for Pedro's family; however, my father beat me to the punch. 
Dad had the eels in the pan and ready to go.
All went well and by the time Pedro's family arrived lunch was ready. 
The day is perfict and we dig in.
Hummmmmmm!!!!!!!!
Philipe and Maria
The eel dish was a success. In particular Pedro's grandmother, Pedro and Jose liked it.
Palmira, Sara and Joanna
Maria enjoyed cuddling the baby rabbit 
The eels were ok after all.

Mum, dad, my sister Ana and Jorge my brother inlaw.
Once lunch is over 3 hrs later we decide to go for a walk along Torreira beach.
The day is great and we stroll along the promenade and chat some more.
The kids decide to hire this four person trike and explore the beach circuit. We say goodby to Pedro's family and head home.
After a rest Kylie, Ana and I go out for a coffee and enjoy the view..
We try to drive up to the beach so we cango for a walk but there are no carparks. Ed decides to drive to Furadouro. They have a folk festival on and groups have come from all over Portugal to sing and dance to their traditional local songs. It was very unexpected and very enjoyable. 

This lady was very gracious when I asked  could I take her picture.

The folk festival topped off a delightful day.

  1. Got to love lunch on tables out in the yard - this used to happen in my Nan's backyard in Stockton (Mum's Mum) all the time! we simply all couldn't fit in the house :)
    You guys really seem to be enjoying yourselves, I hope the next 2 weeks don't go too quickly!!!
