I am sooooooo happy, I saw Ines and her younger daughter Sophia too laughing

Sadly couldn't get inside Ines's house because there are 5 steep steps and I cannot negotiate them ... those are the only moments when I get frustrated and miss my leg ugh

Mom was really excited when I managed to go down a whole flight of stairs (when she went to get her passport, remember?) she practically exploded with laughter and jumped up and down clapping her hands in the middle of the street, I even got a little embarrased at her mad dance and crazy yuhuuuu's blush

Well, it turns out that, as my body is so incredibly long, I cannot go up and down stairs unless the steps are really, really wide (which was the case in Cascais) sad

I tried gently to go up 3 steps the other day and fell roast chicken style, all three legs spread apart and I did panic so Mom and I decided stairs are a no go area and that's that.

We are now back "home" in the flat Mom rented for a week, I got sooooooo tired seeing her carrying all the luggage from the car so am now snoring away on my bed.

Goodnight everybody Zzzzzzz

Mom said she had a big surprise for me today and I got REALLY excited clap

Can you believe she stops on the way just for us to look at the view ????

She is going on and on about this being one of the most beautiful spots in the world and I'm thinking "can we get back on the road so I can find out what the surprise is?..."
