Our Open Letter to the Atlantic Ocean
Dear Atlantic Ocean,
You are even more beautiful in March than you were in December when we first met you. We like you for the dramatic dance you perform without a flow. And we love you for the way you chase us every time we try to steal your colorful pebbles and intriguing shells. And mind you, this is from somebody who's been living by the sea for the last ten years, but then again, the Mediterranean is not such a drama queen as you are.
So it should come as no surprise that shortly after we arrived at our Porto hotel and the morning rain stopped, we jumped on the first bus to meet you again. And, boy, you were fabulous. Therefore, we spend our whole first day in Porto with you, all the way through the sunset.
We had tons of fun with your seagulls. They are high end entertainment. And we enjoyed having drinks and food with ocean views on the stunning Porto promenade that graciously but ironicaly mixes your natural ocean smells with the fried fish aromas from the restaurants along the way.
We like you lots and we will surely visit you again!
