Our Portuguese Adventure - Day 3

We've found a lovely little routine that suits us and are all so relaxed here in sunny Portugal. Henry has been beyond amazing today, so good and well behaved, full of beans and lots of cuddles. 

Daddy and Henry were up early again and once I was up, we all had breakfast before going out for a nice long walk along the seafront. We walked along the cobbled path and watched the fishermen and it turns out that cobbles are great for getting little ones to sleep in pushchairs because Henry was soon fast asleep for his morning nap. We made the most of it and stopped for a lazy cup of coffee and the most divine custard tart I've ever eaten. We will definitely be back for more tomorrow. We used the free wifi in the cafe to catch up with things at home and for me to upload my blog. 
Once Henry was up he had an ice lolly and we wandered home and went straight down to the pool. We played, ate watermelon and had a swim before coming back up to the flat for lunch. Mr B went to a local cafe to pick up an amazing spatchcock barbecued chicken and we had that with salad. Henry is loving all the food here, he and his daddy were tucking into sardine pate on their bread tonight at dinner....grim!! 
After lunch Henry and I went for a nap (it sounds like all we do it sleep) and Mr B went into town to watch some football with it being the first day of the Premier League season. Once he was back we went swimming and played by the pool for an hour before coming back and getting showered and dressed for dinner.
We went to a lovely seafood restaurant but unfortunately it was fully booked, so we've booked to go back for dinner tomorrow. Instead we went over the road to a restaurant right on the beach and had a really lovely dinner. Afterwards we had a walk along the beach and went for a drink in our favourite little bar. Henry had a sorbet, chased some doggies and acted like a total lunatic - we can only assume it was the dodgy sweetener and E numbers in the orange drink he was given at dinner!! 
He is now fast asleep again and we won't be long either. We're looking forward to another quiet and relaxing day tomorrow...and maybe a custard tart or two.
