Loving Everything Beach
It’s hard to believe we have been in Pedasi for two months already!! When we left home we knew it would be a quiet winter with less “out and about”, and it has been. I am thankful that we are able to be away from the cold, snow and ice. From the beginning our mainContinue reading “Loving Everything Beach”
Lagos, Portugal, 2020
We took a day trip to Lagos, which is another small city not far from where we are living in Praia da Rocha. Each time we go out exploring, I think it is not possible for the sights to be even more beautiful, but it always is. Our first planned stop was Ponta da Piedade.Continue reading “Lagos, Portugal, 2020”
Monchique, Portugal 2020
Another little town not far from where we are staying in Monchique. It is in the mountains, with a totally different look and feel. The town itself is rather charming. One of the main attractions is a 17th century monastery about a 15 minute walk from town. We did not do it as our dayContinue reading “Monchique, Portugal 2020”
Arriving in Portimao,Portugal 2020

London 2020, Day 3
Our last full day in London. We again took the hop-on hop-off bus with a few main goals, but were open to where ever the spirit took us. Our first stop was Trafalgar Square. Could have easily spent all day there!! Lots of buskers. We went to the National Gallery, and could have easily spentContinue reading “London 2020, Day 3”
London 2020, Day 2
As we only had two full days in London, we decided the best way to see as much as possible, was to buy a two day hop-on hop-off bus pass. Initially we “did the tour” and listened to the commentary. It was interesting, and so much information. We drove past Westminister Abby and the churchContinue reading “London 2020, Day 2”
London 2020
We had a couple of days at home, thanks Heather and Mike for the wonderful hospitality. Before we actually had a chance to catch our breath we were off to London. I actually slept for a coupe hours so wasn’t dead when we arrived. We took the Gatwick Express to Victoria Station. It was quick.Continue reading “London 2020”
2019, Christmas in Pedasi
Christmas in Pedasi is celebrated with gusto. By mid December the church and town square was nicely decorated. A large nativity scene was set up on one side of the church. The wise men were outside….and the road was blocked. There was a Christmas Parade, the information said it was to start at 5 PM.Continue reading “2019, Christmas in Pedasi”
Sorrel….and Hibiscus, 2019 Pedasi
We have a lot of Hibiscus trees in our yard. Even though the flowers don’t last long, more keep coming. Daryl decided to make Sorrel. We found a recipe on-line and started the process. First he dried some Hibiscus petals. Then added to water. Next he added orange peel, a cinnamon stick and star anise.Continue reading “Sorrel….and Hibiscus, 2019 Pedasi”
