Hoje foi dia de descanso. E como estava bom tempo, nada melhor para aproveitar do que comer na rua :)
Depois ainda convenci o Ricardo a ir até ali à "praia" da esquina e apesar da brisa fresca que soprava já tínhamos muitas pessoas de biquini a aproveitar o sol. Na nossa opinião estava agradável, o suficiente para usar Tshirt e talvez um casaco fininho por cima... para biquini ainda não :D.
Algo que já reparámos ser aquilo que chamamos "típico" norueguês foi o facto de estar programado acabar às 15h e às 15h acabou. Podia-se ver que as pessoas facilmente teriam ficado mais tempo e até comer mais qualquer coisa (havia comidas de vários países) mas não, aqui quando é para acabar às 15h acaba-se. A sensação de "acabou, toca a ir embora" é iminente. E acabar uma espécie de "tasquinhas" às 3 da tarde??? XD
O bom e típico português deixa-se ficar na conversa não é? Nós ficámos à conversa com o casal mais uma hora ou hora e meia e quando nos fomos embora não restava vestígios que alguma coisa ali tivesse acontecido. Acho que nunca me vou habituar a tal coisa. Nós distraídos com a conversa nem tempo tivemos para comer nada :). Bem, fica para uma próxima. Espero eu :).

Today was a free day. And as it was good weather outside, nothing better to enjoy than eating on the backyard :).
After that I convinced Ricardo to take a short walk to the "beach" and despite the not so warm breeze, it was already possible to see many people on their bikini enjoying the sun. In our view it was nice enough to wear Tshirt and perhaps a thin coat over ... but not for bikini just yet :D.
Saturday was a day of going to a kind of small fair with some performances of various nationalities which was organized in one of the city streets. We didn't even know of such event if it wasn't a Chilean customer of Ricardo that likes him and told him about this. We also met a couple of Portuguese (who has lived here for nearly 30 years) and have a long and interesting conversation with lots of ideas and points of view to exchange. I hope we can know about and go to more of such events :).
Something we begin to noticed what that we call as "typical" Norwegian "thing" was the fact that it was scheduled to end at 15h and at exactly 15h was over. I could see that people would have easily stayed longer speaking and eating something else (it was possible to taste a lot of different foods) but not here... when it is to end at 15h is over :). And 15h to end such of event? so weird to us.
A typical Portuguese stays a lot longer speaking isn't it? And so it happened.
We were chatting with the couple for another hour or hour and a half and when we decided to go home there wasn't a single trace of a party that could happened there. I think I'll never get used to that.
As Ricardo and I were distracted by the conversation we had no time to eat anything :). Maybe next time, i hope!
