June 9 Sunday Lagos
- Shaina and Mo agree to join me at GolDig for cappuccino
- They said they would try the oat milk but no they chickened out and got cow milk
- Ernie stays home so doesn't witness the surrender
- This little piggy gets oat milk high in calories and vegan smoked salmon from carrots on home made bagel
- We do takeout of Golden Latte with oat milk, turmeric and other spices for Ernie
- Ernie likes it, I think too much turmeric
- Discuss benefits of the flat peach. Like eating a sandwich so easier and less drip than round one
- Shaina and Mo didn't do real beach day yesterday, too windy for them
- We take them to Botato Beach
- Mo meets his friend from St Louis at entrance to beach path.
- Coincidence or destiny? Who knows, but old friendship possibly revived.
- After long reunion, continue our walk at beach
- Go further than yesterday, through the arches, over the rocks, tide coming in, walking thru water, slipping and holding the cliff edge
- Another lady who is also 'reaching that age' helps me over the rocks
- Survive the ordeal only to see a restaurant up top with a staircase down to us
- It's all about the story
- Can't proceed anymore, water to high to continue
- Climb up and walk along upper trail with unbelievable views
- Shaina and Mo take off on their own
- Ernie and I look for Alkibar as we promised Ronen.
- Find Choco Frito instead
- As we study the menu, who comes out - Christina, Ronen's friend from Calhou restaurant
- She asks if we remember her from yesterday, of course we do
- Sylvino and Christina now own a new restaurant (Choco Frito) where Ronen's favorite used to be
- Coincidence or destiny? Who knows, but too funny not to eat here
- I try the Caipirinha and monk fish
- Ernie goes for baby squid, puntillulas and beer
- AND, they just happen to have the same Mousse de Café as Calhou, AND Shaina and Mo are NOT here, AND Ernie hates coffee flavor, so I get to eat the whole thing MYSELF!
- Email Ronen the bad news, favorite restaurant gone, and good news, his friends now own the location
- Walk back but pass our Airbnb and arrive at big grocery store, Intermarch
- This is a really big place - we finally find a small collapsible cooler... and stuff for dinner- pasta, chicken, salad, fruit
- One end has a Burger King - we pass
- Walk back - I am NOT going out again today
- Ernie and Shaina make dinner
- I do dishes
- Portugal wins Nations League Futbol one to zero against Holland
