ahhhhh vaca....

Did you know I think my body reflected the sun on Friday? Yes, when I stepped out in my bathing suit onto the beautiful Portugal beach on Friday I was definitely the WHITEST person there. (Mags - think socks, need we say more?) Burr even said he had never seen me so pasty. It was scary. (I think I did not notice because I was in London with all these pale people) *

*Note to self - Just because you are living in London does not mean you need to embrace ALL aspects of London life. I will be investigating spray tanning ASAP.

So in order to no longer reflect the sun off my pale-ness we sat in the sun for the next 48 hours and I'm happy to tell you I am no longer a 0 on the 0-10 pale to tan scale, but a comfy 2.5. (Although my subburnt legs are stuck to our leather couch - OUCH).

Portugal was awesome - I'll let Burr tell you all about it.

We lived through last week without a tube, and when I say "we" - I really mean Burr because I did not go anywhere, just worked from home and walked if I needed to go anyway.

I did go to this place that sells workout clothes called "Sweatty Betty" - isn't that an adorable name for a store?! ( I mean it does not have the brand recognition of Nike but its just so fun to say!) Wel, l they have free yoga classes once a week and if you go 5 times they give you a free top. ISn't that crazy? I mean, come to my store, take my free class, and I'll give you a free shirt?! These marketing people are so interesting here. But, whatev. I'm in! (Just need to find space for the shirt now!) Oh, and when they told me I would receive a free "vest" the first time - I was like "Who wears a vest to work out in?" - but here a vest=workout top - good to know!

Burr and I don't have any more trips planned, I def. need to get more on the calendar asap. Although, I think I would much prefer a beach vaca to a museum attending, exhibit viewing vaca. ahhhh

back to life in the real world tomorrow.

Isn't getting back from vacation difficult?!
Hopefully this week we will hang out with Burr's friend Eric who is in town for the summer and maybe Ed, who should be moving here soon. I have a work happy hour Friday and we are supposed to go to the horse race on Saturday. Don't you worry I already have my hat - ADORABLE:-)
Lots of love,
