The next day we hopped on a bus to Lagos, Portugal. We ended up being the only two on our bus after awhile and got a wonderful private bus tour of Portugal!
Lagos was beautiful! We checked into this gorgeous guesthouse for only 10 euros each a night. We pretty much have our own apartment as no other guests are here. We have our own full kitchen, bedroom, balcony, tv, and bathroom. Amazing!
Then we explored Lagos a bit, finding a neat castle/museum on the beach, really beautiful caves and arches on the shoreline, and even a museum about the slave trade. We went to a local market and bought the ingredients for a nice dinner that we cooked for ourselves back in the guesthouse.
Amy's birthday was fabulous!

It was family owned, so the waiter introduced us to her mother-in-law who was the one who cooked our fish. We got to tell her how much we loved it! The only thing was that the fish heads were still on, including the eyes and it was kinda freaky! They even had family lunch while we were there and gave us a portion of their lunch to try. Then they sang me happy birthday in Portuguese! (Parabens!) So so fun :)

We got back to lagos, went to the grocery store and came back to our guesthouse. Michelle cooked Amy a lovely chicken dinner! Then we spent the night relaxing, skyping with both our parents, and catching up on some tv. We miss you all! (photos of all this to come soon!)
