Impressions of Costa Verde….
Lush green valleys…
…Red tiled houses
Pure clean air…
…Pine and dust
Crushed mint underfoot…
…Good company
�
Laughter…
…Making new friends
Tired legs…
…Fresh light wine
Strong shots of coffee…
…Cool sand between toes
�
Sound of surf…
…Duckboards over dunes
Sunsets – moon & Venus…
…Fertile, sprouting crops, bright flowers
Vines, untidy, not regimented…
…Light bachalao fritters
�
Fresh fish, today’s catch…
…Stocky immaculate churches
Crosses on plinths…
…Levadas
Cobbled pathways…
…Bread rolls
�
Cabbage top soup…
…Juicy melons
Sea mist…
…Pale blue skies
Wild horses…
…Big smiles
Clear mountain streams…
