Water Fun

All day long - pool, showers, watermelon, and then this evening, down to the beach at Roc de Sant Gaietà, and into a warm sea (the sea is almost always cold in Portugal - Atlantic, not Med), preceded by the best white chocolate gelato I've ever had.

The kids are in bed, exhausted; we are sitting on the porch, snacking and talking; our three are reminiscing about boarding school. I can't concentrate...

Some bad news about the home my special needs brother has lived in for many years.

Gratefuls:
- Sam making us a great lunch
- everyone being happy with the house, and the pool
- doing poo sandwiches
