Bem-vindo a Portugal

Ready for the Adventure

Our Portugal adventure has begun. Life here (at least for Leif  and I) is slower. We are adopting the culture, and it feels oh so strange coming from the hustle of life at home. People are relaxed and family oriented, with long meals and breaks in the middle of the day. Everyone has loved Leif and talks and plays with him when we are walking around and playing at the park. He hugs waitresses and people we meet and they give him hugs and kisses on the head (not strange here-I promise!) it is such a kid friendly culture.  There is an amazing kids park and cafe in the park to get an espresso and run around in the sunshine. (Espresso for me, running for Leif) Leif is really loving it here. He is running over the cobblestones, chasing pigeons and finding dogs. Talking constantly and interacting with everyone and everything in his environment.
