Lagos, Portugal (our vacation from our vacation)

Yesterday we left Bordeaux, France and made the extremely long voyage to Lagos, Portugal (and when I say long, I mean that we left yesterday morning and got here today after a 27 hour train ride).  BUT, I can honestly say that it was 100% worth it!  The town is in a quaint beach town and is full of fun shops and flip flop wearing locals.  Unfortuently, it is raining today off and on (still 70 degrees though), but tomorrow is supposed to be nice and sunny and we have heard that the beaches here are to die for!  We checked into our AMAZING hostel today and were told about a fun ´cliff hike´ down the coast that takes you along a few gorgeous cove beaches and ends at a lighthouse.  WE CAN´T WAIT!  We also have already settled in with some of the other people staying here (all of which are Australian) and it seems like it will be a really fun group.  When we arrived, we were instantly invited to join in on their lunch plans and they took us to a resturant that served ´English-style´ breakfasts for only 3 euros (about 4.50 dollars).  THE FOOD IS SO CHEAP HERE (HOORAY!)

The best part is that we are going to be staying here (laying on the beaches) for a week (maybe longer if we feel like it)!

I hope everyone is doing well back home! 

Loves!
