Walking and Relaxing

For all of you being interested in walking and hiking:
now it´s the time to do it.
From March to May, it isn´t yet too hot, still the weather can be sunny and warm and all is green and lush from the winter.
The dunes start flowering, the sun has already some strength

and the Costa Vicentina is one of the most unspoiled costal regions in Europe

But also the south coast has a lot of treasures.
I did a hike near Armação de Pera last week with a friend.
Behind the dunes of the beach east of Armação we came across trees I´ve never seen before and still don´t know how they are called. They didn´t have leaves nor needles, just a kind of green twig and they were flowering in an abundace, it was just absolutely stunning. And the scent!....

They were all over, hundreds it seemed

If anybody knows, what kind of tree it is, please let me know

Also around the house there are such wunderful walks


The neighborhood at sunset

And the little smoking area underneath the trees has 2 chairs now

And for the relaxing part after walking:

I got the hammock out.....

See how relaxing it is

Little nap........
