Shelter

When you go for a walk on the seashore at Carcavelos, no problem taking your four-legged friend with you if you feel like having a drink or a snack at Gémeos (Twins' Bar). Your dog will be resting on the shade right in front of you.

Actually there hasn't been one single cloud on the sky in the last days. We're having a wonderful Indian Summer with temperatures around 25ºC.

São Julião Fort

This fort dates back to 1553 and is considered to be the greatest coastal defense building in Portugal (a large part is hidden by the palm trees).

During the French invasion, Napolean troops have occupied it in the year of 1807, but British allies conquered it one year later and in 1809 the fort was again in Portuguese hands.

In Brazil "muleca" means naughty girl and I think it might fit her well.

Stormy Weather

Carcavelos Beach

This shot was not taken today. Today there's a Code Orange weather alert... It rains cats and dogs and the wind is so strong that I have to keep all shutters closed!
