She’s always been fond of street markets mostly on account of their round scent armouring loud colours. Between the eggplants and the chestnuts, his voice scattered the curtains of her absent mind. A grave tone, mild, without passion. She tried to figure his face out before looking behind. She thought he would be a man with arched back from sustaining his age, probably widowed even if his wife still presents dinner on a tightly delicious schedule, even if they still sit together in the same room or keep a shared bed. There was a reverberant sadness related to departures. Maybe he had bronze skin, the biggest heritage he kept from his navy days and perhaps he reads about voyages; otherwise why would he sound so distant or wavy? Looking back she blushed upon her assumptions. Decidly tall, certainly made of ebony, young enough to spend life together, he was carved out her wishes. Sounding old was due to ancient thoughts kept in her memoir waiting for someone like him. She would leave Portugal in a snap if that pirate found her golden heart. He took it. No resistance was shown. They built a realm far away where verdant landscape and soothing heat settled camp. Today, on top of a colossal rock giving to the Atlantic, alone with the ocean, they are jumping. It would be corny and accurate to compare this to a rebirth of two, silently delivered by love rather than passion. Why is it so exceptional to long for the deepest breath and dive? bar and guesthouse Miss’Opo celebrated the special occasion of her third anniversary. We hope it will repeat itself for the next years and the odds are quite auspicious. Every December first there’s something happening. This time M’O saved the date with a photoshoot marathon. Soon, there will be a calendar to remember by. Duck and M’O will keep you posted. www.missopo.com REI DOS GALOS DE AMARANTE restaurant Miss’Opo chose this place to serve birthday dinner. We had squid and bean stew, chicken “na púcara” and roasted veal. It’s familiar so: nearby, good food, good wine, nice owners, soft bill.
