A day in the Portuguese sun

Today was a sun, scenery and delicious memory-filled day hiking on Rota Vicentino. It felt so wonderful to hike the beautiful cliffside trail high above the deep blue waves, feel the cool winds off the Atlantic, and explore the gorgeous beaches and little fishing villages with my loves! This day was totally magical. It will provide me with images and memories to last throughout my upcoming months of recovery.

Like mama said, our Portugal trip has entered a new dimension of coolness these past few days on the ocean. Away from the beautiful but busy Lisbon streets we have been able to spend more time with each other, get plenty of steps counted on our fitness apps, and enjoy beautiful seafood in even more beautiful scenery. All three of us have felt like this is one of the more incredible regions we have ever been to. Empty of people - tourists or locals, the Rota skirts steep cliffs and offers incredible views of the rugged coastline and the big blue Atlantic. I am glad to be spending time with mom and dad in this incredible place. -Rory

In Portugal, in the Alentejo, Spring is here! Everywhere there are flowers, from bushes, herbs, and trees. I love the many different kinds of plants. Oh, and then there's the ocean and the wind. Our first glimpse of the wide blue coast took my breath away! Large rolling waves crashed into the rocky shore way down below with winds blowing at 30-40 miles an hour.  This is a beautiful place to create memories of travel with loved ones, food, the pristine environment, and the joy of life!  - besos, steve
