We left on Friday, spent one night in Salamanca and saw two of the Easter processions there, arrived in Felgueiras, Portugal on Saturday and have fallen in love, once again, with yet another region of Europe - another, "let's retire here, it's beautiful."
Awoke on Easter morning to the sound of fireworks and roosters. Cooked our Easter ham to the same sounds.
We toured Dom Jesus in Braga, the kids had their hunt.
This is quaint and modern. Beautiful... absolutely beautiful. We love it here.
So, there will be much to say and many, many photos to look through and to share. We return on Saturday. Look for posts and photos next week.
Funny... Easter is over, but the fireworks are still going. We're heading to the beach to see the west coast Atlantic.

Quotes to consider...
"The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and all science. He to whom this emotion is a stranger, who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead: his eyes are closed."
-Albert Einstein
What the heart has once owned and had, it shall never lose."
-- Henry Ward Beecher
It is in your moments of decision that your destiny is shaped. -- Anthony Robbins
We don't stop playing because we grow old; We grow old because we stop playing. -- George Bernard Shaw
An adventure is only an inconvenience rightly considered. An inconvenience is an adventure wrongly considered. -- GK Chesterton
The creation of a thousand forests is in one acorn. -- Ralph Waldo Emerson
For most of history, Anonymous was a woman. -- Virginia Woolf
A friend is someone who will help you move. A real friend is someone who will help you move a body. -- anon
The only reason some people get lost in thought is because it's unfamiliar territory. -- Paul Fix
For attractive lips, speak words of kindness. For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people. For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry. For beautiful hair, let a child run his fingers through it once a day. For poise, walk with the knowledge you’ll never walk alone … The best thing to hold onto in life is each other. ~Audry Hepburn
I am a great believer in luck, and I find the harder I work the more I have of it. -- Thomas Jefferson
