a window

note: I posted the picture of this beautiful window because I am closing this "window" of mine for awhile. I am going to dedicate my time to my new job that I am starting this week! and also do what Sonia has started...walking and my swimming to see if I lose the 7 kilos I gained this winter to get in shape to start my own family of little saloios or saloias! I thank you for sharing this experience...despite some bumps in the road it has been wonderful.

be well

É aqui que já senti o verdadeiro silêncio numa manhã de verão nestes montes de Paredes do Vale no Minho

...peaceful weekend to all....especially to Fatima (hang in there!)

EDIT

...last night I saw this little guy on RTP2 (no Jules e os Animais Mais Perigosos:Amazonia) and well, it was love at first sight! I never knew they existed?...made me laugh, anyway...

tea

Amelia lives in S. Pedro. She invited us for a tea which lasted until 10pm. She shared every nook and crany of her house with us and how interesting it was! She remembers the story behind every "tarreco" as she calls them that she owns.(she collects ceramic statues!) I ate too many cookies and spoke my bad portuguese but it was very special. thank you
