Having a great time here with Joao – went for a bike ride this morning in the intense heat and dryness of the sandy soil of this region. Had some great food at a beach restaurant close to his house.

After lunch I went off into Lisbon again to visit the Maritime Museum and change my flight to Barcelona. Going to have some friends over tomorrow so it was too much to leave on Thursday morning.

Check out these storks (Cegonhas) – the nest right on the posts next to the road!
