coming through

ok ok I'm here, I promise. And yes I know I returned on the 31st so I should have already been posting for days right? yeah...

well that trip was a serious zap, and so was this weekend, I mean both totally amazing but I'm still recovering. Just physically and mentally exhausting. In fact I was super blah, like really super blah, and I didn't understand why everything else felt so blah, but now that I'm coming back to life again (hahaha, but in a different way) I understand that I had been pushed to my limits.

Let's dive right in since the last time I seriously posted, and not in order. :)

Porto, Portugal
Porto is located on the coast of Portugal near the top.
We arrived there by train from Lisbon.

artsy picture forshadowing the rain and wind to also be coming the following day.


this is codfish, Portuguese women compare with each other how many different ways they know how to prepare codfish, and the combinations keep going and going. (I know this may not look that appetizing but I had to divulge this tidbit of information)


this is how windy and rainy it was, I bought that umbrella about forty-five minutes before this picture was taken.


Kelly and Chris also enjoying the weather.


Final goal: a glass of port wine.
